I’m back but this time it’s a science post. As you can probably tell from the title, this past unit we worked on light, mirrors, and lenses. We worked through two labs and learned a bit of history along with it.
Mirrors:
We started off the unit of light with a mirror’s lab. We learned about the different types of mirrors and their uses. Concave mirrors are used to concentrate light and create heat to produce power.
-
- Plane mirror reflecting light at 45 degrees
-
- Concave mirror reflecting light at 90 degrees
-
- Concave mirror reflect light at 45 degrees
-
- Convex mirror reflecting light at 90 degrees
Lenses:
-
- Bi-convex lens with light shining at 45 degrees.

- Bi-convex lens with light shining at 90 degrees.
