Slide 3

1. What is visible light? -smallest part of the EM spectrum that the human eyes can see Red to Violet (ROYGBIV)

Slide 4

What are the different colors of visible light? Red lowest energy, longest wavelength Orange Yellow Green Blue Indigo Violet highest energy, shortest wavelength ROY G BIVROY G BIV

Slide 5

Which color has the most energy and short/small wavelength???

Slide 6

Color Violet the HIGHEST energy and SHORT wavelength

Slide 7

Which color has the lowest energy and long/big wavelength???

Slide 8

Color Red the LOWEST energy and LONG wavelength

Slide 9

What happens when you wear WHITE on a hot day?

Slide 10

How do we get white? ???

Slide 11

2. White light ALL the colors ROY G BIV being REFLECTED

Slide 12

Slide 16

4. How do we see color?

Slide 17

4. HOW DO WE SEE COLORS? First, light goes from the source (sun, lamp, etc.) to the object. Second, the color we see is reflected and the rest is absorbed by the object.

Slide 18

WHITE When all colors are REFLECTED We see WHITE

Slide 19

BLACK When all colors are ABSORBED We see BLACK

Slide 20

Summary Answer the essential question: How do we perceive color?

Slide 21

Summary Answer the essential question: How do we perceive color? Light from sun reflects off object and we see the color that is reflected. Quick Review Point What is the smallest band of the Electromagnetic spectrum?

Slide 22

HW: How We See Light 1. House Plant What color(s) go in? What color (s) go out?

Slide 23

Review When white light hits an object, all the colors are absorbed except for the color of that object. Example: Blue All colors absorbed except blue, which is reflected to eye. White No colors are absorbed. All colors are reflected to eye. (white light) Black All colors are absorbed. No colors are reflected to eye.

Slide 24

Activity Instructions For this activity, you will be given a colored balloon. You will see objects of various colors on the screen. If the color you have is absorbed by the object, you need to cover the balloon with your body. DONT POP IT!! If the color you have is reflected by the object, you need to reflect the balloon into the air above you.

Slide 25

Confused? Its okaylets give it a shot. All colors are absorbed except
