The Thin Convex Lens

The Thin Convex Lens

The Thin Convex Lens. In a previous experiment, you observed the phenomenon of refraction for a rectangular piece of glass. The bending or refraction of the light was observed for two parallel interfaces, one from air to glass, and the other from glass.

Atomic Theory Scientists

Atomic Theory Scientists

ATOMIC THEORY SCIENTISTS. Democritus (5th century BC) said that matter was made up of tiny indivisible particles called atoms (greek for uncuttable). John Dalton, in 1803, developed the atomic theory (billiard ball model). Everything in the world is made of atoms.

Physics 20Lesson 16 Friction

Physics 20Lesson 16 Friction

Physics 20Lesson 16 Friction. In the previous lessons we learned that a frictional force is any force that resists, retards or impedes the motion of an object. In this lesson we will discuss how friction results from the contact between two surfaces.
