Ch 14-15 Packet refraction interference diffraction
... What you should know when all is said and done: 1. Describe properties of waves that show how light behaves as a wave such as: A) Refraction. Compare the speed of light through media with different optical densities and explain why dispersion occurs. B) Interference. Describe how interference patter ...

Skill Sheet 32-B Doppler Shift
... 1. The graphic to the right shows two spectral lines from an object that is not moving. Use an arrow to indicate the direction that the spectrum would appear to shift if the object was moving toward you. 2. The graphic to the right shows the spectral lines emitted by four moving objects. The spectra ...

... The simple converging lens is called “Magnifying glass”. It is used to see small objects enlarge. How large an object appears, depends on the size of the image, it makes on the retina of an eye. This depends on the angle subtended by the object at the eye. As an object bring up close to our eyes so ...

... The redshift range discussed in detail in this paper is 0 < z < 1. At higher redshifts it becomes very difficult to determine the morphology of galaxies. Observational results indicate that the galaxies have only taken on their familiar appearance relatively recently. The galaxy population starts to ...

... Reflected (bounced) from the surface of large particles such as raindrops and ice crystals. Refracted (bent) gradually as it travels through the atmosphere, or abruptly as it passes between water and air. Diffracted into a field of patterned waves as it skirts around tiny cloud droplets. Absorbed by ...
