100

If you see yourself in a mirror, what property are you witnessing?

Reflection

What is this character's name?

Patrick Star

Where does an image form?

Where reflected rays intersect

200

If the image distance is negative, then the image is ...

virtual

200

What is the law of reflection?

The angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection

200
If light travels into a medium with a higher index of refraction, what happens to the light?

It bends towards the normal

200

How many items are in a baker's dozen?

13

300

What are the characteristics we use to describe an image

upright/inverted, larger/smaller, real/virtual

300

What is the Magnification Equation?

M = hi/ho = -di/do

300

What is diffraction?

waves bending around an obstacle/through an opening

300

What is refraction?

Light bending because of a new medium

Who is this actress?

Angelina Jolie

400

If the object is beyond the focal length, what are the 3 characteristics of the image?

smaller, inverted, real

400

What is the mirror equation?

1/f = 1/di + 1/do

400

What are the 2 types of interference?

constructive and destructive

400

What is reflection?

waves/particles bouncing off a surface

400

What show is this cast from?

Cyber Chase

500

Draw the ray diagram of an object placed at the focal length of a concave mirror.

No image because reflected rays are parallel

500

If the object distance is infinitely far away, then the image distance is equal to..               ...Why?

the focal length, because the object value would be zero so, 1/f=1/di

500

How is echoing down a hall different than someone singing off pitch?

echoing down a hall is reflection of sound, off-pitch results from wave interference

500

How is refraction different from diffraction?

Refraction bends because of a new medium, Diffraction occurs because of an obstacle
