Light Interactions
by Hannah McKolay
This lesson is an introduction to a unit on the light and transverse waves. It can be utilized during a unit or at the beginning as an exploration. Students measure the speed of light in a medium (gelatin) by using an inexpensive laser such as a laser pointer or a laser level.
