SPF
• The SPF of a sunscreen is a laboratory measure of the
•
•
effectiveness of sunscreen; the higher the SPF, the more
protection a sunscreen offers against UV-B (the
ultraviolet radiation that causes sunburn).
The SPF indicates the time a person can be exposed to
sunlight before getting sunburn with a sunscreen applied
relative to the time they can be exposed without
sunscreen.
For example, someone who would burn after 12 minutes
in the sun would expect to burn after 2 hours (120 min)
if protected by a sunscreen with SPF 10.
The Visible Spectrum
A range of light waves extending in wavelength
from about 400 to 700 nanometers.
Things that create a Spectrum
 Prism
 Raindrops
 CD’s

energy level, the atom is said to be
excited.


When the electron returns to a lower
energy level, energy is released in the form
of light.

Which is hotter?


Answer: Sirius, I’m not kidding.
Consider a red filter and a blue filter. Which
is hotter?

Answer: They should be the same temperature
because they are not “glowing”.
Fluorescence

Some materials that are excited by
ultraviolet light can emit visible light upon
de-excitation. This is fluorescence.

Demo - Black light and chalk
Fluorescent Lamps

Primary excitation - electron collisions with
low pressure mercury vapor, and ultraviolet
light is given off

Secondary excitation - ultraviolet light is
absorbed by phosphors and these emit
visible light
Phosphorescence



Phosphorescence - a type of light emission
that is the same as fluorescence except for
a delay between excitation and deexcitation.
Electrons get "stuck" in an excited state
and de-excite gradually.
Demos - glow-in-the-dark objects

Refraction

Refraction is the bending of light when it
passes from one transparent medium to
another.

This bending is caused by differences in
the speed of light in the media.




Light slows down when it goes from air into
water and bends toward the normal.

the atmosphere is at sunset or sunrise.

clusters of water molecules vary
with the size of the clusters.
The size of clusters of water
molecules (droplets) vary in clouds.
