4/9 Armour

Today in physics, we received new teams, so we made our teammate farewells and got new blue sheets. Next, Coats-Haan heated up marshmallows in a microwave without the plate spinning, so we could determine the wave length. Then we found the speed of light using the given frequency and the wave length I measured. Since I measured the wave length, we all know our answer was very close to the accepted value. We could find the speed of light by using the equation v= wave length * frequency. After the in-class demonstration, Coats-Haan set us loose to work on Star Light, Star Bright (pp. 175-176), The Electromagnetic Spectrum (pp. 177-178), or Properties of Light reading (our homework).
