Exploration 3: Light

Collect objects based on how they reflect light. List the different qualities, such as reflective, translucent, refracting, mottled, etc. (Try to collect thirty objects).

For this experiment I collected some of the many objects in my room (pictured).


Poster of a white tiger


White, glossy radiator


Bedroom mirror


Window


Mosaic glass pane

What I noticed:
This experiment works better in the day so that you can see how the different objects naturally reflect light.
Also, my blackberry camera phone sucks for taking pictures....must invest in a proper camera.
I had to research the qualities of light....*embarassed*

But anyways. here goes:
transparent: see through
translucent: some light can travel through
opaque: no light can travel through
mottled: marked with spots or patches of many colours or shades
reflective: capable of physically reflecting light
refracting: deflect (light, for example) from a straight path by refraction
