IntroductionA general introduction to the topic, including why the investigation is important. This investigation will investigate the nature of light and how it behaves when a ray of light passes through a block of transparent glass. This investigation is important so that how light behaves can be studied further, as this investigation will serve as a knowledge base for future experiments and research. It will also help to understand the behavior of light when traveling through different objects.The purpose of the investigation.The purpose of the investigation is to see whether the light bends towards or away from the normal when it enters the glass block.Basic information in based on your research in Activity 1 (400 words) Light is a form of energy, it emits electromagnetic energy. Light travels at 300,000 km/h and can be reflected from an object, pass through it, or be absorbed by the object. Multiple properties of light have been identified; they are Frequency, Wavelength Spectrum, Polarization, Direction and intensity of propagation. (Wikipedia, 2014) Light comes from multiple sources, the main one on earth is the sun, however there are other sources, such as lights/lamps and fire. Without light we could not see anything, since our optic nerve interprets light and other aspects as color and allows us to see. Reflection is light radiation visible to human eyes. It's part of the reason we can see so well. (Wikipedia, 2014) Another element of light is refraction. This happens when a light wave changes direction (bends) when passing through different mediums, such as water, glass and others.
