Class Notes

Learning Targets

1. Students can draw diagrams of wave diffraction and explain what happens when incident waves pass through a narrow opening and through a wide opening.

2. Students can draw diagrams of wave diffraction and explain what happens when incident waves pass around an obstacle or around corners.


3. Students can identify which properties of waves change and which properties of waves remain unchanged during diffraction and reflection.

​4. Students can predict the location of virtual images in a planar mirror and explain the left-right reversal phenomenon.
​

5. Students can explain in their own words how the law of reflection applies to all mirrors and planar reflective surfaces (like still water). 6. Students can explain common natural phenomenon and technology that uses reflection of light or sound waves.
