Science week of 10/5

MONDAY:

This week in science we talked more about light and rays and stuff like that. On monday, we learned that water magnifies light so things that bounce off something in water appear bigger. We learned this by observing the way a ruler "changes" when it is placed in water.

TUESDAY:
On Tuesday we observed how a laser reacted when shined through water. The way we did this was we shined a laser on a piece of card board and marked were the dot was. Then we did the same thing except with glass of water between the cardboard and the laser and the dot was lower.

Wedsday:

Today, we read about the particle theaory and a wave model theory. We did a couple demonstrations in clasee. For the particle theory, we saw that a b-ball bounced off the wall and that particles work that way.

Thursday:

On thursday we watched a video that had to do with light refraction or "bending".

Friday:

NO SCHOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!yippe

Good, Stefan! I’m glad you’re posting. But I know you can change this from a pretty good post to a pretty great post!

Now you’ve received partial credit. Email me after you also answer what applications are there for this idea or why are these ideas important, which is part of the weekly questions - so I can give you more credit.
