Eye Dissection

 Aim: To dissect a cow's eye and look at the different parts of the eye.


Equiptment: 

1.  A Cow's eye
2.  Tray
3.  Tweezers
4.  Scissors
5.  Newspaper
6.  Gloves


Cow Eye Dissection

Method:

1. Set up a tray with newspaper on the desk, the tray on top and the scissors and tweezers in the tray.

2. Put on a rubber glove.

3. Start to remove the excess fat and meat from around the eyeball before dissecting it.

4. Puncture a hole in the corner where the cornea and the sclera meet.

5. Cut around the cornea so that the vitreous fluid leaks out of the eye onto the tray.

6. Once the cornea has been totally removed you will be able to remove the lens from the iris.

7. Cut the eye in half so that the inside is totally exposed. Once this has been done you will be able to access the retina at the back of the eye.

8. You should now have placed the retina, lens, cornea and iris on a place of paper.

9. The dissection is now completed and all parts of the eye need to be wrapped up and trashed. The trays and utensils that were needed must be rinsed and the rubber gloves throw out.


Summary:

The cow's eye has exactly the same parts as the human eye except for its ability to see better in the dark.

Reflection and Refraction

Definition


Reflection
The bouncing back of a wave when it hits a surface through which it cannot pass.

Refraction
The bending of a wave as it passes at an angle from one medium to another

Incident ray
Incoming ray

Reflected Ray
the light ray that bounces off a surface

Refracted Ray
The Ray that has bent as it enters a new medium

Normal line
An imaginary line is drawn perpendicular to the surface of a mirror or any surface

Angle
The amount of bending that a light ray experiences 

Complete the sentences using the following keywords:

Reflection   light   reflected    normal   same    incidence


When Lights hits a mirror, the angle at which it hits is the Incidence as the angle at which it is Reflected. Scientists called this the Law of Reflection. Incorrect science terms, the Reflection Law states that the angle of Normal is equal to the angle of Same when measured from the Reflection.


Diagram







Research Task:

  1. What is a periscope? Is an optical instrument that uses a system of prisms, Lenses or mirrors to reflect images through a tube. 
  2. How does it work? Light from a distant object strikes the top mirror and is then reflected at an angle of 90 degrees down the periscope tube.
  3. Draw and label a periscope?

Energy Transformation Experiment

8 different kind of energy

  1. Sound Energy
  2. Light Energy
  3. Heat Energy 
  4. Chemical Energy
  5. Electric Energy 
  6. Kinetic Energy
  7. Potential Energy
  8. Elastic Potential Energy



  1. Chemical  + Electrical = Phone
  2. Light + Chemical = Flashlight,Car
  3. Kinetic + Light =  Conect



Aim: To make a marshmallow shooter that transforms energy.


Equipment:

  1.  Marshmallow
  2.  Cup
  3.  Scissors
  4. Duck Tape
  5. Balloon


Method:
  1. Take the scissors
  2. Cut the bottom off of the cup
  3. Take the balloon and cut the bottom off the very tip after you cut it off you will take it and stretch it over, the top of the cup where you cut hole once it's on you will tie and knot in the end where you would normally blow air into balloon tie it off.
  4. In order to secure the balloon over the top of the cup take a piece of duct tape and wrap it around securely tapping the balloon to the cup, this will allow you to be able to pull the balloon as far back as you can without snapping off, You will now take a handful of marshmallow this will be your ammo that you will able to shoot far distance with to prepare your new marshmallow and place it in the  very centre of the bottom of your cup 
  5. You will now take hold of the end and pull it back as far as you would like in order to gain
  6. Have Fun!
How To Make A DIY Marshmallow Shooter | Somewhat Simple
Here is The Video

Conclusion:


 This Experiment turns from Elastic  Energy ➡ Kinetic energy.

Energy Transformation

                       The Law Of Conversation Of Energy

Energy can't be created nor destroyed, but only change from one form into another form.

Example of Energy transformation 

  • Flashlight -Chemical-light
  • Car-Chemical-Kinetic, Light sound
  • Phone-Chemical-Electricity-Light, Sound, Heat, and chemical energy
  • Laptop-Electricity-Light, Sound, Heat and chemical energy
  • Radio-Electricity-Sound

Aim: To look at the energy transformation


Equiptment:

Paper
Scissors

Summary:
The paper will get burn and more fire going on

What kind of energy was transformed?
To heat energy

What was it transformed too?
The heat energy to kinetic
