XC: notes on… How Do 3D Glasses Work.doc black light, fluorescence, etc Vegas Hotel Pool.doc (see webpage)

9. Triangle versus rectangle (dispersion) If you have an odd-shaped piece of glass (not a parallelogram, but like a prism or a water drop) the angle of final refracted ray that comes out is NOT equal to the angle of the original incident ray that went in. ie: those rays are not parallel. Thus, the light spreads out or “disperses” and we get a rainbow.

10. Finding “n” of water Each lab table gets 1 laser, 1 sheet of paper, 1 box: Trace the box in the middle of the paper (tape it?) Set the laser light up at about 20-40 degrees incident to the box (tape it?) Make a small dash mark where the laser light enters the box – incident (and label it “a”) Make a small dash mark where the laser light exits the box when empty (and label it “b”) Fill the box with water Make a small dash mark where the laser light now exits the box with water in it (and label it “c”) Put ALL group members names on paper, and had it to the teacher to make copies for all. If you finish quickly, you may then “play” with the fiber optics cables or the optics filters or the prisms – see your teacher Tomorrow: Draw a line through a-b OUTSIDE the box (incident ray) Draw a line through a-c INSIDE the box (refracted ray) Measure & draw in the normal measure (& write in) incident & refracted angels Use Snell’s Law to calculate the n for water Do a % error calculation Line a-b OUTSIDE box Line a-c INSIDE box Laser safety rules!!!!

11. Thurs 3/6 1.Calculation of n of water 2.Rectangle vs Triangle (or finish other from yesterday) 3.Start Mirror Ray Diagrams & Lens Ray Diagrams 4.HW: (a) Mirror/lens concepts fill-in handout RC 1, 2, 4, 5, 7-11; AC 3-8 (look in book and/or new Guided Notes for the answers we haven’t covered yet!)

Any 11 th graders who need next-year schedules signed??

12. Ray Diagrams Mirrors Lenses

13. Fri 3/7 1.1 st period – calculate n of water from data 2.Finish diagrams: Mirrors and then maybe LensesMirrorsLenses 3.Learn equations using wrksht 4.Depending on time left: 15 - 20 min = Laser reflection contest? (Can do after STAR too) 5 min = do Blind Spot 5 min = Watch “Optical Illusions” from Bill Nye “Brain” ?? 5.HW: (a) Mirror/lens probs old book #2, 4, 5, 7-10, 13-15 (SEE HINTS ON BACK!) (b) Redo mirror diagrams a second time 2) 2.4 m 4) 20.0 cm 5) 75.0 cm 7) 30.0 cm, -1.8 cm 8) -24 cm, +9.0 cm 9) 5.0 10) concave, 32.4 mm 13) 66.7 cm, 1.67 h o 14) 51 mm, 1010 mm 15) convex, 16.2 mm

14. 1 / f = 1 / d o + 1 / d i - d i / d o = h i / h o = magnification Concave mirrors & convex lenses (diagrams 1-5) have positive focal lengths. A negative d, means the image is virtual. An infinite (  ) d i means the image is non- existent (diagram 4). Convex mirrors & concave lenses (diagrams 6) negative focal lengths. A negative h, means the image is upside down (inverted). Any problem about the sun or other stars as an object means use d o = infinity. The focal length of a "planar" mirror is infinity (recall that 1 /  = 0 and that 1 / 0 =  ) ***Note - because of the negative sign in the 2 nd equation, it is not possible to have a real erect image!***

17. Lasers with reflection Work in pairs of tables across lab tables (9 people?) Only FAR lab table has laser “ON”. Shine laser on first mirror across isle to nearby lab table. Bounce laser from first mirror to 2nd mirror back across lab tables. Bounce laser from 2nd mirror to 3rd mirror back across lab tables. Hit all 9 mirrors; the last mirror is the big one. The light must bounce off of that mirror onto the top knob of the sink at the far lab table. First pair of lab groups to get all mirrors gets extra credit; some xc for 2 nd place (if there is one). If we run out of time, group with most mirrors wins.

Light, Colors, (ch 16), reflection & refraction (ch 17/18) Study Guide bottom 2 squares of front: Draw at least 1 polariz. picture: “Polarized light” defn = the light is all vibrating in the same direction. Glare defn = reflection off a surface (which is horizontal, so sunglasses with vertical polarizers are necessary

22. Light, Colors, (ch 16), reflection & refraction (ch 17/18) Study Guide back-side, top 2 squares: Planar mirrors: distance to (virtual, upright) image is exactly the same as distance to the object.
