Introduction to Light Lesson for Middle Schoolnricci2
Light is a type of electromagnetic radiation that behaves as both a particle and wave. It comes in packets called photons that act like particles. As a wave, light has frequencies and wavelengths. The frequency is the number of times the wave passes a fixed point per unit of time, and higher frequencies correspond to shorter wavelengths. Different frequencies and wavelengths of light carry different amounts of energy. The electromagnetic spectrum classifies light based on its energy, with some types like ultraviolet and infrared having wavelengths just outside the visible light range that the human eye can see. Visible light corresponds to wavelengths from 400-700 nanometers and is experienced as the colors violet, blue, green, yellow, orange, and red from shortest to longest wavelength.
Red light has a longer wavelength than blue light. Light behaves as a wave and the color we see depends on the wavelength. Visible light is a small portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. A photometer is a device that measures light intensity as perceived by the human eye, taking into account the eye's sensitivity to different wavelengths. There are different types of photometry including differential, which compares the brightness of an object to others, and absolute, which measures an object's actual brightness without comparison.
Spectrophotometry and colorimetry are analytical techniques that use light to determine properties of substances. Spectrophotometry measures how much light is absorbed by a solution and can be used to determine concentration. It works by passing light through a sample and measuring the absorption at specific wavelengths. Many factors can affect the measurements, including concentration, path length, and calibration. Spectrophotometry has wide applications in fields like chemistry, medicine, food science and more.

spectrophotometry, ultra violet absorption, infra red atomic absorption.priya tamang
A spectrophotometer is a photometer that can measure the intensity of light as a function of its wavelength. Single beam and double beam are the two major classes of spectrophotometers. Linear range of absorption and spectral bandwidth measurement are the important features of spectrophotometers.
In Single Beam Spectrophotometers, all the light passes through the sample. To measure the intensity of the incident light the sample must be removed so that all the light can pass through. This type of spectrometer is usually less expensive and less complicated. The single beam instruments are optically simpler and more compact, znc can also have a larger dynamic range.
In a Double Beam Spectrophotometer, before it reaches the sample, the light source is split into two separate beams. One beam passes through the sample and the second one is used for reference. This gives an advantage because the reference reading and sample reading can take place at the same time.
In transmission measurements, the spectrophotometer quantitatively compares the amount of light passing through the reference and test sample. For reflectance, it compares the amount of light reflecting from the test and reference sample solutions.
Many spectrophotometers must be calibrated before they start to analyse the sample and the procedure for calibrating spectrophotometer is known as "zeroing." Calibration is done by using the reference substance, and the absorbencies of all other substances are measured relative to the reference substance. % transmissivity (the amount of light transmitted through the substance relative to the initial substance) is displayed on the spectrophotometer.

B. The electromagnetic spectrum orders electromagnetic waves from radio waves to gamma rays based on increasing frequency and decreasing wavelength. Different electromagnetic waves are used for technologies like WiFi, infrared devices, MRI, and X-rays.
Temple of Asclepius in Thrace. Excavation resultsKrassimira Luka
The temple and the sanctuary around were dedicated to Asklepios Zmidrenus. This name has been known since 1875 when an inscription dedicated to him was discovered in Rome. The inscription is dated in 227 AD and was left by soldiers originating from the city of Philippopolis (modern Plovdiv).
THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

1. What is Spectroscopy?
Spectroscopy: The study or
measurement of lights colour
or ‘wavelength’
Spectrometer: An
instrument to measure the
wavelength of light
Spectrum: A plot of the
colour profile (wavelengths
present)
2. Colour and Wavelength
Light can be many
different colours
Each colour of light is
different to the other
Because each colour of
light has a different
wavelength!
3. Colour and Wavelength
The wavelength λ of light is
the distance point to point of
a wave of light
The ‘visible’ light ranges
from violet light 400nm up to
red 700nm
The shorter the wavelength
the more energy the light
has
λ
4. Electromagnetic Spectrum
Light is a form of
‘electromagnetic wave’
Visible light is only a very
small section of the range
of wavelengths!
See if you recognize any
others
5. • So how does a spectrometer
work?
• The answer lies with
dispersion
Measuring the Wavelength of Light
So if a nanometer is 1
millionth of a millimeter,
how do we measure the
wavelength of light?
We certainly can’t use a
ruler!
So we must use other means,
we must use a spectrometer
6. Measuring the Wavelength of Light
When light passes through a
small slit (grating) or prism it
‘spreads out’ or disperses
The longer the wavelength
the further it disperses
Each wavelength spreads
differently due to the
formula
n.λ=d.sinθ
• This dispersion creates a
spectra, which we can record
using a camera to analyze
• This is the basis of
spectroscopy
7. Spectroscopy
There are three main types of spectra within spectroscopy
Continuum: Broad bands of
many wavelengths
Emission: Only some
specific wavelengths
present
Absorption: Some specific
wavelengths missing
(Absorbed)
8. Spectroscopy
In professional spectrometers the intensity of the light is
plotted vs. the position of the light on the camera,
With a little math we can then convert this to intensity of the
light vs. the wavelength of the light
9. Spectroscopy
Continuum spectra are most commonly due to thermal energy being
released from a sample at all wavelengths (Black body radiation)
The broad release of energy will have certain shape of intensity
which can often be used to determine the rough temperature of the
sample
Emission and Absorption spectra hold much more information about
the sample and are what we look for in spectroscopy.
But why? The answer is atomic fingerprints!
10. Atomic Emission – Atom Fingerprints
When atoms are excited
electrons can move up into
the outer rings
Electrons will release energy
in the form of light to return
to their original state
For each element the
spectrum of light is specific
like a fingerprint
11. Atomic Absorption - Atom Fingerprints
Similar to atomic emission but
the process is reversed
Fingerprints of light are
absorbed rather than emitted
Electron is excited up and
releases the energy in other
forms
Usually requires the sample to
be in a gaseous state
12. Atom Fingerprints
If we can capture these
atomic spectra with a
spectrometer we can read
these ‘fingerprints’
Using reference tables we
can determine what
elements are present
It’s nearly like looking at the
sample’s recipe!
Ingredients:
1 Tsp Carbon
1 Tbsp Hydrogen
1 Tsp Oxygen
Pinch of Potassium
13. Example – Fluorescent Bulb
We can see the change to the
‘new’ style of bulb has less
continuum this is due to less
energy wasted into heat energy
We can also see that the
mercury spectrum matches up
with lines in the spectra
showing the presence of
mercury in the bulbs
Fluorescent Bulb Old Style
Fluorescent Bulb New Style
Mercury Spectrum
