What is Light??
![Page 8: NEW TOPIC: PHYSICS](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816958550346895de1077a/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Light is a form of energy that travels in straight lines at a speed of 3 x 108 m/s through the vacuum of space and into our atmosphere. Light is a type of electromagnetic radiation, which is made up of wave patterns consisting of both electric and magnetic fields that move at right angles to each other.

Properties of Light
1. Light travels at a very high speeds
Light travels in straight lines
![Page 10: NEW TOPIC: PHYSICS](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816958550346895de1077a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Light... travels through a vacuum
does NOT require a medium for transmission.
Is energy transferred through radiation.
![Page 11: NEW TOPIC: PHYSICS](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816958550346895de1077a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
What is a Medium?
A MEDIUM is any physical substance that acts as a carrier for the transmission of energy.
![Page 12: NEW TOPIC: PHYSICS](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816958550346895de1077a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Conduction & ConvectionHeat energy can be transferred by either conduction or convection.
Both conduction and convection require a MEDIUM for transmission. Conduction – solids Convection – liquids & gases
![Page 13: NEW TOPIC: PHYSICS](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816958550346895de1077a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Light is energy transformed through radiation
Radiation is a method of energy transfer that does NOT require a medium.

Light is an Electromagnetic Wave
An electromagnetic wave is a wave that...1. has electrical & magnetic
parts2. does not require a medium3. travels at the speed of light

The Electromagnetic Spectrum
Scientists have identified many different kinds of electromagnetic waves. A whole spectrum of them!

A wave is a disturbance that moves through space, transferring energy from one point to another.
Frequency (Hertz, Hz) - the number of waves that pass a point per second
Wavelength (nanometers, nm) - how long each individual wave is as measured from the peak to peak or trough to trough of a wave
![Page 19: NEW TOPIC: PHYSICS](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816958550346895de1077a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Wavelength and frequency are inversely
related to one another. When the wavelength increases (becomes longer), the frequency decreases, resulting in low energy radiation.
When the wavelength decreases (becomes shorter), the frequency increases, resulting in high energy radiation.

Visible Light
The wavelengths of light
that humans
can perceive with their
eyes.
“ROYGBIV”
![Page 23: NEW TOPIC: PHYSICS](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816958550346895de1077a/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Of the different types of electromagnetic waves, visible light is the only one that humans can see. This visible spectrum known as white light is composed of seven different colors.
![Page 24: NEW TOPIC: PHYSICS](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816958550346895de1077a/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Newton was the first scientist to study color. He passed sunlight through a prism and found that it could be separated into beams of light of different colors. He showed that visible light actually consists of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet light. Each of these colors corresponds to a particular frequency and wavelength of light.
![Page 25: NEW TOPIC: PHYSICS](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816958550346895de1077a/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
White Light & PrismsIn vacuum, all colors travel at the same speed (= speed of light).
The triangular prism slows down the speed of light, but by different amounts...
Red Light = Least Energetic = Slowed Least = Travel Fastest.
Violet Light = Most Energetic = Slowed Most = Travel Slowest.
Prism can separate white light into different colors.

Ultraviolet
Only some of the Sun’s ultraviolet light reaches the Earth – the ozone layer
protectsus from most of it. The UV
lightthat does reach Earth can be harmful to the skin, causing sunburns.
![Page 29: NEW TOPIC: PHYSICS](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816958550346895de1077a/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Ultraviolet (UV) Light

X-RaysUsed in doctor’s offices to see bones, but
arealso produced in space by violent
processes. However, these wavelengths are unable to
getthrough to our lower atmosphere.
![Page 31: NEW TOPIC: PHYSICS](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816958550346895de1077a/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Aside: Bees are Incredible! Many species, including
bees, can see a broader spectrum of light than we can!
Bees have UV-sensitive photoreceptors in their eyes that allow them to see UV light (humans cannot see UV light)!
![Page 32: NEW TOPIC: PHYSICS](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56816958550346895de1077a/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
There are certain pigments in flower petals that absorb UV light and create patterns visible to bees (but invisible to humans).
These patterns are referred to as“honey guides” or “nectar guides.”
They serve to direct the pollinators toward the center of flowers where the pollen is located.

Did You Know…Goldfish can see infrared radiation that is
invisible to us. Bees, birds, and lizards have eyes that pick up ultraviolet light.

Sources of LightLight sources can be natural (coming from
theSun) or artificial (coming from a light bulb
orcandle).
