Plankton are aquatic organisms that drift throughout their environment as they posses no true motor capabilities. Within their respective aquatic habitats plankton form the productive basis of their ecosystem and are divided into two subcategories: zooplankton and phytoplankton, the later will be the primary focus of this paper. Phytoplankton, as well as other photosynthetic organisms poses pigments called chlorophyll. These pigments allow phytoplankton to convert carbon dioxide and water to oxygen

colors of lights also affected the refraction of an eye and diffraction from pupil. In this third experiment, I used different colors of filters within the laboratory and see how the wavelengths of light

Have you ever sat down and wondered why you can hear things? How sounds form? What are the different components? This all happens because of sound waves. Sound Waves are disturbances that go from one place to another in a medium. An example of this could be a Slinky. when it is all stretched out the slinky would be at equilibrium. Then a particle in the slinky moves in any direction and makes a disturbance. A pulse allows you to see the disturbance that is happening from both ends of the slinky

make up an object. The object is made up of specific wavelengths of white light unique to the object, and it absorbs the light according to its wavelengths. Molecules have many states, two of these states, are states where the electron is excited and neutral when it is originally found. Molecules and atoms can only absorb light when the energy of a photon matches the energy difference between these two states.

number of loops were documented for future calculations. Weights acting on the mass hanger were removed to observe more loops that were able to form. Again, the length of the string, tension and number of loops were determined and recorded. The wavelength (w) was calculated

chemical substance is able to absorb light by measuring the light’s intensity as it passes through a specified sample.3 Given certain wavelengths, the amount of a certain substance in a solution can be determined. The device used to measure these properties is called a spectrophotometer. This device consists of a spectrometer that produces light of any color (wavelength), and a photometer which measures the intensity of the light.2 In this experiment serial dilutions will be performed and from this

computer was used to simulate shining light at the following objects/mediums: Prisms, water, air, and glass. The intensities of the reflection and refraction were measured by the angles from the vertical speed and wavelength. Light came through several prisms, and we noticed that different wavelength of light (i.e. colors of lights) behaved differently. When reacting to different objects the light came out at sharper angles of light. When the light moved from an area of low density (like air) to high density

Abstract: In the mid nineteen sixties, the Vinland map was found. It was renowned because it demonstrated that the recorded reality that Columbus was the person who found America. In reality Vikings were the ones who found America. The Vikings were fishermen and ranchers who ended up being warriors who originated from Scandinavia; they lived from the year 793 until 1066. [Hassan, 2013] What is the evidence suggesting that the map might be authentic? Greenland was discovered upper east of North America

lines representing louder sounds, shorter lines representing softer sounds and horizontal lines representing no sound at all. Frequency of a wave and wavelength have an inverse relationship, as one goes up the other goes down. The larger the wavelength, the lower the frequency of the wave will be which leads to a lower pitch. The smaller the wavelength the higher the frequency of the wave will be which leads to a higher

The classical theory of Raman Effect was developed by G. Placzek in 1934. According to the classical theory of electromagnetic radiation, electric and magnetic fields oscillating at a given frequency are able to give out electromagnetic radiation of the same frequency. Electromagnetic radiation theory can explain light scattering phenomena. When deriving the Raman Effect, it is generally easiest to start with the classical interpretation by considering a simple diatomic molecule as a mass on a
