Week 26: Physics - EMR and Light

This week we are: Learning about EMR, light and its properties
I will be able to explain refraction of light and lenses
I will be able to explain dispersion, diffraction and interference patterns in light.
I will be able to explain polarization of light
I can explain images from convex and concave lenses
I can calculate the image location, magnification and focal point for different lenses
I can calculate the critical angle for refraction
I can explain dispersion, diffraction and interference patterns qualitatively
I can describe the quantum model of light
I can explain the photoelectric effect
I can  calculate the work function from a graphical representation.
