Bending Of Light Lab Report

Discuss what you did in this lab and what you will cover in the lab

1) The materials: cup, gummy bear, triple beam balance, water, metric ruler, and pencil were utilized for the experiment.

There are several sections to this lab. Find each section and complete the “Preparing for Class” sections.

Hold the IKI spray bottle 25 - 30 cm away from the paper towel, and mist with the IKI solution.

Please explain the purpose of this lab. Include in your explanation the major concepts you learned and any safety concerns associated with the lab.

In order to conduct this experiment you will need to know all the major steps. First, you will grab the depression slide and use your eyedropper to collect a single Daphnia and place it in the indentation of the depression slide. Make sure to remove excess water with the corner of your small paper towel. No coverslip will be necessary.

The spectrophotometer was turned on 15 min prior to the experiment. For each different intensity levels, 2 cuvettes were prepared (one for the experimental variable and one for the control variable). Also, 2 cuvettes were prepared for each different wavelength. Two blanks were prepared for the entire experiment (one for intensity, one for wavelength). The experimental cuvette for intensity consisted of 2.5 ml of 2.5 ml DCPIP, 2.0 ml water, 2.0 ml PO4 buffer, and 0.2 ml chloroplasts, a total of 6.7 ml. The control cuvette for intensity was the same as the experimental cuvette for intensity. The experimental cuvette for wavelength consisted of 2.5 ml DCPIP, 1.7 ml water, 2.0 ml PO4 buffer, and 0.5 ml chloroplasts a total of 6.7 ml. The blank cuvette intensity contained 4.5 ml of water, 2.0 ml of PO4 buffer, and 0.2 ml chloroplasts for a 6.7 ml. The wavelength blank was composed of 4.2 ml water, 2.0 ml PO4 buffer, and 0.5 ml chloroplasts for a 6.7 ml. Before starting the experiment, we set the wavelength at 600 nm, placed the blank cuvette into the spectrophotometer, and set the absorbance at zero. The laboratory was kept dark during the experiment to prevent light pollution.

The Lab One was done on Laboratory Techniques and Measurements. The first experiment with my Lab partner; we got opportunity to experiment how to conduct measurements in length by using metric conversion. We started in cm units and changed into mm by x10, and moving decimal point x1 to right. To find in meter we moved from cm to meter two decimal points to the left or double check our self divided by 100 and all records in data table 1. The second experiment was to measure temperature of how cold and hot tap water can be by using thermometer in Celsius units. From this experiment, gained knowledge that tab water doesn’t boil to 100 Celsius related to containing different

A spectrophotometer is an instrument which measures the amount of light of a specified wavelength which passes through a medium. This instrument is usually used for the measurement of reflectance of solutions. Light is separate into different wavelengths and is being passed through the sample solution. The sample solution will have its own wavelength and will absorb a certain amount of light. The higher the molecular concentration, the higher the absorbance value.

This lab was pretty cool because we got to do numerous tests and see different but similar results. I learned how Newton’s Third Law works and it’s very cool. Newton’s third law happens in everyday life. For example, fighting over the remote control with your brother, you both add an equal and opposite reaction of force. Overall this lab was fun and a learning lesson. I had a great time with this fun

Procedure: First, set up the microscope. Clean the ocular lenses and objectives with lens paper. Then pace the prepared e slide on the stage and make adjustments. Turn the rotating nosepiece until the 10x objective is above the ring of light coming through the slide. Move the slide using the X and Y stage knobs until the specimen is within the view. Adjust the focus by looking into the eyepiece and focusing the specimen with the coarse then fine focus knobs. Adjust diaphragm until there is sufficient light

The speed of the wavelength of white light before it hits the raindrop determines the color a raindrop will emit. If the wavelength of white light travels at a slow speed, then the wavelength of light will bend more when it enters the raindrop.

The objective of this experiment is to demonstrate the bending of a bean when loaded at the center of its length and examine its deflection when positioned in two different ways, when the flat side of the beam is support and when the thin side is supported. In addition, try to find linear relationship between the load applied and the deflection of the beam and comparing the experimental deflection with the theoretical deflection.
