Warm-Up Exercise What is optics? Is it possible to emit light without heat? How many different types of light can you
think of?
What is optics?
The Science that deals with the properties of both visible and invisible light and with vision.
How many technologies can you think of that use radiation?
Uses for radiation
Television Radiation therapy Microwave MRI X-rays Cell phones Tanning beds Fiber-optics Microscopes Lasers CD/DVD players/Blu-ray
players Photon cannon Photo radar
WIFI Radios Photocopier UV food treatment R I’s Mirror Blue-tooth Satellites/radar Nuclear Radiation NMR Camera/video Ovens Night vision
An overview in lighting
•Light that is emitted from an object because it is hot
Incandescence
•Fluorescence
•Phosphorescence
•Chemoluminescence
•Bioluminescence
Luminescence (light without
heat)
Translucent
Something that transmits some light but not enough to see through the material clearly Ex. Frosted window pane
Shadows
Umbra• blackest part of the shadow-all light is cut off
Penumbra• partial shadow around an umbra
• i.e: An eclipse
Light Reflection
Regular• Light rays hit a
smooth surface and reflect parallel to each other
Diffuse• Light rays hit a rough
surface and scatter in different directions
Create a reflection using light in the classroom…
