Warm Up: n/a
Learning Goal: Understanding refraction and lenses.
Today: Index of Refraction
Given: A solid rectangular block of transparent plastic or glass (or a transparent liquid in a transparent container), a laser, a box of sewing pins, a protractor, meter stick, a white opaque screen.
Find: The index of refraction of the transparent material, and the speed of light in the transparent material. (Use this lab as a guide). The investigation must involve an analysis of the data plotted on an appropriate graph.
