Maya wonders which types of light could heat up a sheet of aluminum. The table below shows what happens when different types of light hit the aluminum.

Explain why will neither type of light cause the aluminum to change/heat up?

Complete the guided notes below.

How does changing amplitude affect the way we will experience the three waves?

CFS:

• Accurately  identifies the differences in light sources

• Accurately describes the relationship between wave properties and outcomes

What evidence do you have that Laser 2 is different from the type of light emitted by Laser 3?

CFS:

• Accurately  identifies the differences in light sources

• Accurately describes the relationship between wave properties and outcomes

Why must the Lightsource 1 and 2 be different types of waves?

CFS:

• Accurately  identifies the differences in light sources

• Accurately describes the relationship between wave properties and outcomes

How does changing amplitude AND wavelength affect the outcome of two waves?

CFS:

• Accurately  identifies the differences in light sources

• Accurately describes the relationship between wave properties and outcomes

Which wave will reflect when it hits the cylinder in the question above. Explain.

CFS:

• Accurately  identifies the differences in light sources

• Accurately describes the relationship between wave properties and outcomes

Describe what evidence you can find to determine which colors would be best to use and which would be worst?

CFS:

• Accurately  identifies the differences in light sources

• Accurately describes the relationship between wave properties and outcomes'

(Think: what is the only type of light interaction that can cause an object to change?)
