How is light like a particle (matter)?
How is light like a particle (matter)?Does not need a medium to travel through
Can travel through a vacuum
high energy (intensity of light) does not effect light the same way as normal wavesEnergy associated w/ frequency rather than
amplitude
Light consists of Photons- massless bundles of concentrated electromagnetic energy
Photoelectric effectEjection of electrons from certain metals when
exposed to certain frequencies of light

How is light like a wave?How is light like a wave?Light can diffract (bend around stuff)Cannot travel through polar filtersCan exhibit Doppler Effect (change freq. Depending
on motion of source)
Can interfere (constructive or destructive) and refract (bend when travelling between diff. Media)
Has no mass
We refer to all of this as the dual nature of lightThis means………. Light is special

Many diff. Kinds of “light”Many diff. Kinds of “light” A wide spectrum of types of light that we call
Electromagnetic Radiation These include…… infrared, radio, ultraviolet,
gamma rays, microwaves, x-rays, & visible light All exhibit same exact characteristics but vary
b/c of wavelength & frequency All types travel at the same speed
at The speed of light….300,000,000 m/s We can only ‘see’ the small portion that is ‘visible light’ The rest is invisible to the human eye

Transparent MaterialsTransparent MaterialsGlass- natural vibration frequency in the U-V
rangeProduces large amplitudes and energy is lost as
heat UV light cannot travel through glass
Visible light vibrates electrons w/ smaller amplitude so less collisions and less transfer as heat. So light will be reemitted as light Time delay between absorbtions and reemissions
causes light to move more slowly through glass than through a vacuum

Opaque MaterialsOpaque Materials Most materials there is no reemission, and light
Energy is converted to Heat Vibrations of the electrons are not passed from atom
to atom through the bulk of the material; rather the electrons vibrate for short periods of time and then reemit the energy as a reflected light wave
Metals are opaque- free electrons will vibrate easily and reflects light…. This is why metals are shiny

Polarization of LightPolarization of Light Light waves are transverse Electrons vibrate and create a wave in the
direction of the vibration polarized
Since the electrons vibrate in random directions normal light is not polarized
If light shines on a polarizing filter, only the light waves in the direction of the polarization axis can get through
If two filters overlap at right angles, no light can get through

DispersionDispersionDispersion--the breaking up of light into its component colors when travelling through a prism
Why does it happendifferent wavelengths (colors) of light travel through a medium
at different speeds, the amount of bending is different for different wavelengths.
Violet (short ) is bent the most and red(long ) the leastshort wavelengths travel more slowly (lower frequency) through
a medium than longer ones doits colors can be separated (dispersed)
by this difference in behavior.

Keep taking away colors until you wind up w/ oneObjects absorb every color other than the color it
appears However, most colors we see are various combinations
of colorsEx. A blue shirt may reflect mostly blue, some purple,
maybe some green, depending on the shade it appersWhat happens when light goes through filtersObjects we see act like light filtersColors combine the same way that pigments/paints do

Subtractive Primary Colors• Cyan- reflects green & blue• Yellow - reflects red & green• Magenta – reflects red & blue
– So if you overlap a red filter w/ a blue filter you will wind up with Magenta

When different colored spotlights overlap in a dark
room, additive mixing occurs. If the commonly used additive
primary colors red, green, and blue all overlap in effectively equal mixture, white light is
produced at the center. Additive color mixing is
conceptually simpler than the subtractive color mixing you get with paints and pigments since you are just adding light energy in different ranges of
the visible spectrum.
