This document outlines activities exploring light and its properties, including building a spectroscope, observing diffraction through various mediums, and observing interference and iridescence. It then proposes adding LED lighting to warning signals to increase their visibility at night. The proposed design would involve drilling signs, fixing LED bulbs and wires, connecting the system to vehicle switches, and testing the model. Implementing this system could help increase safety by helping people see warning signals better at night. The document concludes by acknowledging the support received for the project.

Summary of activities
Activity 1: light and their
spectra
We built spectroscope to
analyze spectrum of
different light source.
Activity 2: Observing
diffraction
We observed diffraction of
waves through variety of
mediums such as water
waves.

Summary of activities
Activity 3:Observing
Interference
Activity 4 Observing
Iridescence
There are two main types of
structures that create the
colors observed in
Iridescence:
1- Thin Film interference
2- Surface structure
Interference is the effect of
two or more waves moving
through the same place at the
same time.
