effects of a light ray reflecting at different angles of incident from a convex, flat, and convex mirror. In the second part a light ray will be refracted through a rhombus prism at different angles of incidence. We will measure the angles using a protractor. For the third experiment we will examine the indices of colors as light is refracted through the rhombus. Lastly, we will use polar lens to examine Brewster’s angle and polarization. THEORY PART A: REFLECTION When a light ray hits a point on

I have always been interested in the way light travels, not just in how, but also in all the other factors that affect the light rays, including the speed, the velocity, the distance, as well as others. In my past years of school, I had been able to explore areas of physics concerning light rays, as part of my physics course. However, I had previously only learned the basic principles, such as the laws of refraction and reflection. Because I chose to focus on Chemistry and Biology, I was not given

Those were one of Ray Charles’s most famous quotes. Ray Charles was the best rhythm and blues musician of all times. His love for music started at a young age and took him far in his future years. Above is a great musician he suffered great losses on his road to success. Ray Charles has faced many problems that a regular person couldn’t cope with but he never lost faith. Ray Robinson was born on September 23, 1930 (Ford 11), and one year later his brother George was born. Ray and his brother used

thus creating a new blend of music called Soul. This master creator was known as Ray, Ray Charles. He used this new genre to address social and cultural issues of the great depression. Ray Charles was born Ray Charles Robinson September 23rd 1930 in Albany, Georgia USA. He lived in Georgia with his parents Aretha and Bailey for a couple of months before moving to Aretha’s hometown of Greenville, Florida. Here Ray lived most of his youth with his mother and younger brother George. It is unclear

X-rays Science Assessment 9B History X-rays are used for medical purposes. They are a form of radiation named electromagnetic waves (EM Radiation). They are used to take pictures of the insides of the human body which come out in black and white. The X-ray was first developed in 1895 by a man named Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen. While He was working with a cathode-ray tube in his laboratory, Roentgen observed a fluorescent glow of crystals on a nearby table close to his tubes. The tube that he was

X-rays is one of the many discoveries that revolutionized the way the humanity functions technologically, economically and socially in a fast changing world. This invention was thanks to Dr. Rontgen. His invention changed the medical and astronomy field drastically and therefore he was awarded the first Nobel prize in physics. He was awarded this incredible and highly valued award in the year 1901 after producing, detecting and then discovering these high frequency wavelengths produced by electromagnetic

Crumbs Left by a Bradbury From short stories to fantasy and horror novels the ‘science fiction author’ Ray Bradbury entertains millions with his works. Known from his most famous novel Fahrenheit 451, “ a dystopian study of future American society in which critical thought is outlawed” (“Ray Bradbury” 1). Bradbury was not solely tied to novel writing ‘he had many irons in the fire’ he had several article published in numerous newspapers, he wrote many screenplays for movies, and also created his

Ray Charles is a famous musician and was sometimes called “the father of soul”. He did something fascinating in order to be called “the father of soul” which is combining different genres in order to make soul. Ray Charles was born on september 23, 1930. Ray Charles also, played many instruments including piano, saxophone, and clarinet. He was a great musician in the 1950’s. So let’s see what we can learn about Ray Charles. By combining gospel, the lyrics of blues and narratives of blues, country

Ray Bradbury was a leading contributor to fantasy fiction during the 20th century became stirred by the influences of the effects of his personal life, magic, the speedy scientific inventions during his life, and the worldwide fear of the atomic bomb of WWII. Ray Bradbury was born on August
