The History of Light
Pythagoras
A Greek philosopher
Believed that beams of light were made of tiny particles.
The eyes detected these particles and could see the object.

Both the lightning strike and the roar of thunder happen at the same time.
You see the lightning first.
If you multiply the time in seconds between the strike and the roar by the speed of sound, you will find the approximate distance.

Visible Light Spectrum
Can be seen due to the
dispersion of light through a
prism.
![Page 20: Grade 8 Science Unit 2: Optics - St. Paul's …...Grade 8 Science Unit 2: Optics Chapter 4: Many properties of light can be understood using a wave model of light.

The constituent colors of white light are:
Red
Orange
Yellow
Green
Blue
Indigo
Violet
ROY G BIV
**Red has the
smallest refraction
and violet has the
greatest.

When a laser
is shone
through a
prism, the
light will
refract but
NOT disperse.
Why? A laser
light is one
color only!

The Wave Model
Explains that light is a type of
wave that travels through
empty space and transfers
energy from one place to
another

A Wave...
* A Peak is also called the crest.

repetitive motions that
occur during a given time.

wavelengths that pass a
point in 1 second.
Measured in Hertz

Amplitude: the height of a wave crest or depth of a wave trough as measured from the rest position.
crest height = trough depth
The larger the amplitude, the greater the energy transported.

Wavelength: the distance from crest to crest, trough to trough or the distance covered by one complete crest and one complete trough.
Measured in meters
Longer wavelengths refract the least.

Electromagnetic Radiation... A
Safety Concern?Generally, higher energy electromagnetic
radiation is more harmful to humans.
The Earth’s atmosphere is able to protect us
from some of the more dangerous
electromagnetic radiation present in space,
making the Earth a safe place for humans.
Changes to present conditions may comprise
our safety.
