TURNING FORCES: I understand that the forces can cause turning effects.
The causes are simple; you can have a turning effect of a force by the movement of a pivot, causing the lever to also move.
TURNING FORCES: I understand what is ment by the term moment.
Moment is the turning effect of a force.
TURNING FORCES: I know and can use the equation that links moment, force and distance.
Yes.
(moment=forcex distance)
(N=Nxm)
TURNING FORCES: I know the unit of moment.
Nm
REFLECTION: I can describe how light is reflected from a plane mirror.
Yes, the incident ray bounces of the normal creating a reflection.
REFLECTION: I can recall the law of reflection.
i=r
REFLECTION: I can draw ray diagrams to show reflection of light from a plane mirror.
CORRECT
REFRACTION: I can describe how light changes speed between air and either water of glass.
Yes, the ligh changes speed because of the density of each object.
REFRACTION: I can recall that a change in speed can make a light ray change direction.
Yes, since depending of the change, the light ray can bend away or towards the normal.
REFRACTION: I can recall which way light changes direction when it passes from air into glass or water.
When light passes through a less dense substance (air) to an more dense substance (glass or water) the light is bend towards the normal.
REFRACTION: I can recall which way light changes direction when it passes from glass or water into air.
When light passes though a dense substance (glass or water) into a less dense substance (air), the light is bend away the normal.
DISPERSION: I can recall that white light is made from different colours of light.
Yes, white light is made from 7 different colors.
Red has the smallest angle.
Violet has the biggest angle.
DISPERSION: I can describe how to use a prism to produce dispersion of white light.
Yes, by the refraction the colors disperse.
DISPERSION: I can list the seven colours in order, starting from red.
ROY G BIV
Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, indigo and Violet.
COLOURS: I can recall the three primary colours of light.
Blue
Red
Green
