  5. Light, a summary • Light travels at a speed of 300,000,000 meters per second • Any light traveling that is detected will be traveling at 3 x 108 meters per second

  6. Light, a summary • Light travels at a speed of 300,000,000 meters per second • Any light traveling that is detected will be traveling at 3 x 108 meters per second. • This was calculated long before it was found experimentally.

  7. Light, a summary 1. Light travels at a speed of 300,000,000 meters per second • Any light traveling that is detected will be traveling at 3 x 108 meters per second. • This was calculated long before it was found experimentally. • Light is a "ray", "wave", "radiation", "particle" and probably more than anything else, it is a disturbance in the fabric of space itself.

  8. Light, a summary 1. Light travels at a speed of 300,000,000 meters per second • Any light traveling that is detected will be traveling at 3 x 108 meters per second. • This was calculated long before it was found experimentally. • Light is a "ray", "wave", "radiation", "particle" and probably more than anything else, it is a disturbance in the fabric of space itself. • A light wave has a wavelength, which is how long the wave is. • A light wave has a frequency, which is how many waves pass a certain point each second (Hz) • A light wave has a speed, which is always 3 x 108 meters per second. d. The wavelength x frequency = velocity.

  9. More energy will produce shorter wavelengths of light.

  10. A "ray" of light is passing by. It has a 6.9 x 1014 Hz. What can we know about this light?

  11. A "ray" of light is passing by. It has a 6.9 x 1014 Hz. What can we know about this light? Speed? Wavelength? Location on E-M spectrum?

  12. A "ray" of light is passing by. It has a 6.9 x 1014 Hz. What can we know about this light? Speed? 3 x 108 meters per second. Always. Wavelength? 3 x 108 = 6.9 x 1014 • wavelength, So the wavelength = 3 x 108 ÷ 6.9 x 1014 , or 4.34 x 10-5 meters Location on E-M spectrum? Visible. Blue.

  13. KLIN radio (1,400 on your dial) has a frequency of 1,400,000 Hz. What is the wavelength of its signal?

  14. The blackbody radiation curve will show the temperature of an object, based on where the peak of the curve is.

  15. Our Sun has a temperature of about 6,000 K, why is that significant, based upon the location of the visible light area of the spectrum?

  16. The Doppler effect is when the wavelength of an energy source is apparently changing, based upon the changing location of source or the observer.

  17. The Doppler effect is when the wavelength or speed of an energy source is apparently changing, based upon the changing location of source or the observer. Sound of engine will seem lower Sound of engine will seem higher 45 mph

Doppler works for everything that is a wave.
