The Law of Reflection
![Page 4: Light and Color for the Middle School](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56816412550346895dd5c10e/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Flat surfaces reflect best.

Curved Mirrors
• Concave mirrors converge light.
• Convex mirrors diverge light.
![Page 6: Light and Color for the Middle School](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56816412550346895dd5c10e/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Concave MirrorLight converges. This means that it comes together.
Also, the image is flipped past the focal point.

Convex MirrorsLight diverges. This means that light spreads
out.

Curved Lenses
• Convex lenses converge light. The image is flipped past the focal point.
• Concave lenses diverge light.

Refractions causes light to bend.
The shape of the lens determines how the
light behaves.

Color
![Page 16: Light and Color for the Middle School](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56816412550346895dd5c10e/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Dispersion…
Color separates using a prism because different colors have different wavelengths.
Red light bends the least and purple light bends the most.
![Page 17: Light and Color for the Middle School](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56816412550346895dd5c10e/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Color depends on Wavelength of Light.
![Page 18: Light and Color for the Middle School](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56816412550346895dd5c10e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Colored lights combine to appear white.
![Page 19: Light and Color for the Middle School](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56816412550346895dd5c10e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Colored lights add to become white.Why then do paints add
to become black?
![Page 20: Light and Color for the Middle School](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56816412550346895dd5c10e/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Answer: paints are pigments.
Pigments are chemicals which arecapable of absorbing one
or more frequency of white light.

Diffraction – a wave bends around an objectLight is a wave!

Light through a small slit.

Interference: light is a wave!

Polarized light is a
wave!

The Electromagnetic Spectrum
•
Maxwell - (c. 1864) light is an EM wave

The photoelectric effect: light is a particle!
The puzzle of intensity vs. energy

Einstein - (1905)–The duality theory of light–Light has a dual nature: light is both a
particle and wave
