Description: Traces the history of scientific thought about the nature of light. Uses lab experiments to explore the nature of light with special emphasis on its particle and wave-like behavior, coherent and incoherent light, the properties of color, reflection, refraction, diffraction, interference, lasers, holography and polarization., Presents the idea of light transmission, shadows, and eclipses; explains the formation of images in plane, concave, or convex mirrors; and demonstrates the cause of refraction.
