Project: Let There Be Light The Mummy - Treasure Lighting Trick Watch movie clip above. Mythbusters did this and found it isn't very realistic--even though it does produce enough light to see. Because the sun is moving, the top mirror and subsequent mirrors would need to be readjusted to optimize the light. If you want to watch, MythBusters- You Light Up My Tomb , they recreated it and found there were some difficulties. While they labelled this idea as plausible, the movement of the sun causes issues. However, I would like to see you explore this idea through a drawing! Use an 8.5 x11 sheet of paper as your "space", you need to have "light reflected" from one corner of the "space" to the other corner diagonal from it. You are to include one light source originating from off the page, and 6 subsequent plane mirrors to light up the "space". What must be included is the angle of incidence, angle of reflection, and the normal on every mirror used. I also want to see the mirrors sitting at different angles themselves. Primary Criteria: Must be on a minimum 8.5x11 piece of paper Must go from one corner to the opposite corner Must have 6 mirrors (or more) that are set at different angles (not all flat) Must have all normal lines drawn in Must have all incident and reflected angles written in (and be the correct measurement) Must have direction arrows on the rays Secondary Criteria: drawings/setting for the light (mine was obstacles to get to a treasure) Emerging Developing Proficient Extending Primary Criteria 0-2 criteria 3-4 criteria satisfied 5 criteria satisfied All 6 criteria

Project: Let There Be LightThe Mummy - Treasure Lighting Trick Watch movie clip above. Mythbusters did this and found it isn't very realistic--even though it does produce enough light to see. Because the sun is moving, the top mirror and subsequent mirrors would need to be readjusted to optimize the light.  If you want to watch, MythBusters- You Light Up My Tomb, they recreated it and found there were some difficulties. While they labelled this idea as plausible, the movement of the sun causes issues. However, I would like to see you explore this idea through a drawing!Use an 8.5 x11 sheet of paper as your "space", you need to have "light reflected" from one corner of the "space" to the other corner diagonal from it. You are to include one light source originating from off the page, and 6 subsequent plane mirrors to light up the "space". What must be included is the angle of incidence, angle of reflection, and the normal on every mirror used. I also want to see the mirrors sitting at different angles themselves.  Primary Criteria: Must be on a minimum 8.5x11 piece of paperMust go from one corner to the opposite cornerMust have 6 mirrors (or more) that are set at different angles (not all flat)Must have all normal lines drawn inMust have all incident and reflected angles written in (and be the correct measurement)Must have direction arrows on the rays Secondary Criteria: drawings/setting for the light (mine was obstacles to get to a treasure)   Emerging Developing Proficient ExtendingPrimary Criteria

0-2 criteria satisfied

3-4 criteria satisfied

5 criteria satisfied All 6 criteria satisfied

Secondary Criteria

No setting The setting is not clear and colour distracts from rays (or no colour)

The setting is clear and colourful (distracts from rays)

The setting is clear and colourful (doesn't distract from rays)

To the right is my example, if you use the same angles and orientation of my mirrors, you will not receive marks. Below is my process. I detail how to do one random mirror and the end mirror.
