This is a chemistry lesson over light that is part of the electron configuration unit. Students will learn about waves and how to label the parts of a wave. Students will learn the relationship between frequency and wavelength and be able to solve for both.

Physics 1 Academic: Grades 11 and 12

• Students combine primary colors of light to observe the new colors seen.
• Students observe how complementary colors can be identified based on the color triangle.
• Students understand why retina fatigue and color blindness occur in humans.

Physics 1 Academic: Grades 11 and 12

This is the introduction to the Lab on Series and Parallel Circuits.

• Students use light bulbs, voltage source, wires and a switch to construct series and parallel circuits.
• Students observe the properties of both types of circuits.
• During the pre-lab, students understand the purpose of each part of the circuit and the safety rules they must practice during the lab experiment.

Physics 1 Academic: Grades 11 and 12

• Students compare and contrast series and parallel circuits for their properties.
• Students calculate the resistance, voltage and current in each circuit using the specific formulas for series and parallel circuits.
• Students analyze and design circuits.
