Bling Bling Theory
Light can be described as this form of wave.
The result when light travels from one medium to another.
What is light bends/speed of light changes?
The value of the refracted angle where no light will refract from the medium.
What is the 90o?
The most common set of primary colours.
What is Red, Blue, and Green?
Complementary colour is the colour you add to create white light.
No-Cap
The person who disproved Newton's corpuscular theory, who used the double slit experiment.
Who is Thomas Young?
The equation derived by Wilebrord Snellius used to describe the relationship between the angles of incidence and refraction, when referring to light passing through two different media.
What is Snell's Law (ni sin(theta)i=nr sin(theta)r)?
The order of media that causes light to bend towards the normal line.
What is faster to slower medium or low refractive index to high refractive index?
The colour that appears when Red and Blue light is mixed.
What is Magenta?
The following equation:
W - B = (R + G + B) - B = R + G = Y
No-cap
The two methods to produce light.
What are incandescence and luminescence?
A measure of how much light bends when it leaves a vacuum and enters a new medium.
What is the absolute index of refraction?
The order of media that causes the light to bend away from the normal line or towards the boundary between the two media.
What is slower to faster medium or high refractive index to low refractive index?
The set of colours that are sometimes referred to as the secondary colours of light.
What is Magenta, Cyan, and Yellow?
A shirt that absorbs blue light will appear green when illuminated with cyan light.
What is No-cap
The speed of light is always ______ in a medium than in vacuum.
What is slower?
The speed of light through a particular material is measured to be v=2.5∗108 m/s, calculate the index of refraction of the material.
What is 1.2?
What is the critical angle for a light beam underwater in a swimming pool?
Given that: nwater=1.33; nair=1.0003
What is 48.8o?
To produce white light, any three colors of light must be combined with this relationship in intensity.
What is equal?
The complementary colour of green is cyan.
Cap. The complementary colour of green is magenta.
Double Jeopardy

An argon/krypton laser puts out green light. It takes 5 x 10-10 seconds to travel through 10.2 cm of honey. What is the index of refraction of the honey?
What is 1.47
The critical angle for a certain liquid-air interface is 38.99⁰. What is the index of refraction of the liquid?
When white light shines on a shirt that absorbs blue light, light reflected to your eyes makes the shirt appear this colour.
What is yellow?
Young's experiment proved that light is a wave in his experiment where he saw that when light passed two slits the projected results only shows two bands of light.
Cap. He saw multiple bright and dark bands, that could be explained through the interference of the light waves passign through the two slits.
