Slide Number 1

Title Slide

Welcome to this tutorial on Bending Light, an interactive PhET simulation.
Slide Number 2

Learning Objectives

In this tutorial we will learn,

How to use Bending Light, interactive PhET simulation.

Slide Number 3

Pre-requisites

To follow this tutorial,

Learners should be familiar with topics in high school science.

Slide Number 4

System Requirement

Here I am using -

Ubuntu Linux OS Version 14.04

Java version 1.7.0

Firefox Web Browser Version 53.02.2.

Slide Number 5

Learning Goals

Using this simulation we will learn,

Reflection of light

Refraction of light

Dispersion of light.

How reflection and refraction varies with different material media.

Slide Number 6

Learning Goals

We will also learn to,

Use optical instruments like prism and lens

Measure intensity of light

Measure velocity of light and

View different wave patterns.

Let’s define reflection, refraction and dispersion.
Slide Number 7

Reflection

Reflection is bouncing back of a light ray after hitting any surface.

For example- A mirror reflects the image of the observer.

Slide Number 8

Refraction

Refraction is bending of a light ray, when it enters a medium.

Light changes its speed and angle of propagation as it enters a different medium.

For Example: Bending image of a Pencil in a beaker of water.

Slide Number 9

Dispersion

Dispersion is a process of splitting of white light into seven colours.

For Example, Formation of a Rainbow on a cloudy day.

So, let's begin.
Slide Number 10

Let us begin our simulation with Intro screen.

Click on Intro screen to open it.

Cursor on Intro screen.

Point to the Ray and Wave radio buttons.

Drag and move the laser pointer.

This screen has,

Ray and Wave radio buttons on the top left corner.

A movable laser pointer to turn on the laser light.

We can see green coloured arrows, when

mouse pointer is, placed on the laser.

These arrows show the direction, in which the laser moves.

Click and drag the laser, to move it from zero to 90 degrees.

Let us bring the laser to its default position.

Move the cursor to the bottom left. Now let’s move onto the tools at the bottom left.
Point to the tool box.

Point to the protractor tool.

Point to Intensity tool.

Point to the Reset button.

Here we see a tool box.

.

Below the tool box we have a check box to show Normal.

A Reset button is provided at the right hand side corner, to reset the simulation.

Point to the radio buttons Ray and Wave.

Point to Ray.

Let us begin the simulation.

We can focus light in the form of a Ray , or a Wave depending on what we choose.

By default Ray is selected.

To turn on the laser, click the red button on the laser pointer.

Point to the reflected and refracted ray. Notice that laser light gets reflected and refracted.
Click and drag the laser . Observe that, as we drag the laser pointer, angle of reflection and refraction changes.
Place the protractor on the normal.

Measure the angles.

Let’s use the protractor tool to measure angle of,

incidence

refraction and

reflection.

Place the protractor at the intersection point of-

incident ray, normal, refracted and reflected rays.

Observe that angle of incidence is equal to angle of reflection.

Drag the protractor back to its place.

Move the cursor to right hand-side of the screen.

Point to the controls- to measure refractive index.

Next we will move on to, right hand side of the Intro screen.

Here, we have controls to measure refractive index in both the media.

Point to the slider.

Move the cursor to slider.

Drag the slider.

Point to index of Refraction.

Point to the value.

Drag the slider to Water

There is a slider to change the material medium. Or buttons to click.

Initially, the slider is near Air.

As we drag the slider, medium changes from Air to Water and then to Glass.

When medium is changed the angle of refraction changes.

Index of Refraction(n) also changes.

We can see the changing value in the box.

Drag the slider back to Air in the upper medium.

By default slider is on Water in the lower medium.

Drag the slider and place it between Water and Glass in the lower medium.

Point to intensity tool. Now lets measure, the intensity of light using Intensity tool.
Click on Intensity tool.

Point to the magnifier and meter.

Click and drag the Intensity tool to the medium.

Intensity tool consists of a magnifier and a meter to measure intensity of light.

Drag and place.

Point to meter.

I will place the magnifier on the incident light.

Meter shows 100% intensity.

Drag and place.

Point to the meter.

Drag the slider.

Now drag and place the magnifier on refracted light.

Meter shows value as 86.08%.

Intensity decreases because it depends on the medium.

As we drag the medium slider, value on the intensity meter changes.

This is because angle of refraction changes.

Place the magnifier on reflected light.

Point to the meter.

Similarly place the magnifier on reflected light.

Meter shows value as 13.55%.

You can drag the slider to see a different value of intensity.

Point to the wave radio button.

Point to the bending.

Now, change Ray to Wave and observe the bending of light.
