Begin EM waves--general light characteristics are found in the notes posted on the Topic 4 page. Please fill out THIS PAGE and print out for your notes.
Light Refraction--notes and mini-lab You will be making measurements and creating a graph supporting Snell's Law in order to determine the index of refraction of a piece of glass. HW: Graph and analysis for the lab is due on Friday, 12/20 (you have time in class today to work on it and possibly complete all but printing the graph). WA: Refraction of Light--due Friday, January 10 (after break) |

Quiz: mechanical wave behaviors
|
Friday, Dec. 20

Demos on light refraction and its applications (Snell's Law, Critical Angle, Total Internal Reflection...)
Intros and demos: disperson of light, polarization of light (we'll review and take detailed notes on these after break...) Intro polarization of light and introduce polarization "stained glass" project--individual or partner--due Friday, 1/17 And...Bonus lab project--Due Friday, 1/10 |
Dec. 21 - Jan. 5: Winter Break--No School
