co Chapter 7 Light
2
High frequency → High energy Low energy → low frequency Fig. 7.3 Speed of light = 3.0 x 10 8 m/s Electromagnetic radiation
3
Fig. 7.4 Blackbody radiation According to Max Planck, the energy of vibrating molecules exists only in multiples of certain fixed amounts
4
Fig. 7.11 The law of reflection
5
Fig. 7.12 A mirror produces a virtual image A virtual image cannot be projected onto a screen A real image can be projected
6
Fig. 7.13 Refraction (bending) of a light ray.
7
Fig. 7.14 Direction of refraction (bending) of light
8
Fig. 7.16 Formation of a mirage by bending of light Our brains interpret the refracted light as reflected light Light travels faster in warmer air
9
Fig. 7.17 Roses are red because they reflect red light
10
Box Fig. 7.1 Two types of lenses Converging lens Diverging lens
11
Box Fig. 7.3 The human eye
12
Box Fig. 7.4 accomodation
13
Box Fig. 7.7 How a rainbow is formed light is refracted with blue being refracted more than red is refracted White ROYGIBIV
14
Fig. 7.18 Young’s double-slit experiment Interference pattern
15
Fig. 7.19 Polarization of light Consider light to be transverse waves
16
Fig. 7.20 Two ways to position two polaraizers
17
Fig. 7.21 Reflected light may be polarized
18
Fig. 7.22 The photoelectric effect Explanation by Einstein: Light must strike metal as small particles (quanta) Light intensity has no effect on the energy of the ejected electrons E photon = hf h = Planck’s constant = 6.63 x 10 -34 J photons
19
Fig. 7.23 Light is both a wave and a particle
