Energy Grade 7

Here is the diagram for your notes today grade 7s!


Light of my life

We have been learning all about light and optics this unit and will be having a HUGE lab day next week.  In the mean time we have done a few activities that are really fun and help bring the physics of light to life!

Looking at various light sources through a diffraction gradient makes a variety of spectra.



LED

Fluourcent
Incandescent
We also learnt about how green, blue, and red are the primary colours of light (just like your TV pixels) and when you mix them you get white ... well sort of.

Ice Cream

Today in science we made ice cream to, not only study how salt mixed with ice lowers it's freezing point, but also the condensation on the outside of the bag of ice.  

This video really explains the science of it well

If you want to make it at home yourself just click HERE for instructions


We also watched a Google Hangout where they went dog-sledding with Google Glass on for a virtual field trip.  Very cool!
