What's the frequency, Roy G. Biv?
|
This lesson is based on the concepts of frequency and wavelength, how
they relate to each other, and how they correlate with the colors of the
visible spectrum. The students will examine these concepts through a hands-on
lab that involves measuring and timing "wavelengths" by pulling
adding machine tape through a simple, student-made apparatus. This lab is also followed up with critical thinking and performance assessment style
questions.
