Dear boys,
As mentioned last week, you will be submitting your ERM for Light this week.
Note that your Light ERM is due on 30 Sep (Friday).
Some possible research questions for Light:
1. Fish that live in the deepest parts of the ocean have difficulty finding food because they are in complete darkness. What other problems would these deep- sea fish have to face at such depths?
2. Why are insects attracted to light?
3. Find out more about animals that are bioluminescent.
4. What is refraction of light? What are some applications of refraction that we see in our daily lives?
5. What is a laser? What are some applications of laser?
6. What is Short-sightedness / Long-sightedness / Astigmatism?
If you have other Light topics in mind, please take the initiative to check with me first to ensure it is a relevant topic before you embark on searching for a suitable article to find the answers.
Some videos related to Light:
1. The Spectacular Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights)
Northern Lights by National Geographic
2. Have you ever seen a Laser Light Magic show?
3. A video about Holograms and Lasers
4. At least half of us in the class is short-sighted.
Ever wonder how the lenses of your spectacles/contact lenses are made?
What is an Optical Illusion?
As you can see, there is a great variety of interesting topics that is related to Light.
We will not be learning all of them at P5 Science. :(
Nevertheless, do continue to read up and widen your general knowledge during your free time.
Regards,
Mrs Ng
