  • Color Mixing Ratios
    Colour Mixing: Ratios Color Theory with Tracy Moreau Learn more at DecoArt’s Art For Everyone Learning Center www.tracymoreau.net Primary Colours In painting, the three primary colours are yellow, red, and blue. These colors cannot be created by mixing other colours. They are called primary because all other colours are derived from them. Mixing Primary Colours Creates Secondary Colours If you combine two primary colours you get a secondary colour. For example, red and blue make violet, yellow and red make orange, and blue and yellow make green. If you mix all of the primary colours together you get black. The Mixing Ratio for Primary Colours To get orange, you mix the primary colours red and yellow. The mixing ratio of these two colours determines which shade of orange you will get after mixing. For example, if you use more red than yellow you will get a reddish-orange. If you add more yellow than red you will get a yellowish-orange. Experiment with the shades you have to see what you can create. Try out different combinations and mixing ratios and keep a written record of your results so that you can mix the colours again for future paintings. www.tracymoreau.net Tertiary Colours By mixing a primary and a secondary colour or two secondary colours you get a tertiary colour. Tertiary colours such as blue-lilac, yellow-green, green-blue, orange-yellow, red-orange, and violet-red are all created by combining a primary and a secondary colour. The Mixing Ratios of Light and Dark Colours If you want to darken a colour, you only need to add a small amount of black or another dark colour.

  • Absorption of Light Energy Light, Energy, and Electron Structure SCIENTIFIC
    Absorption of Light Energy Light, Energy, and Electron Structure SCIENTIFIC Introduction Why does the color of a copper chloride solution appear blue? As the white light hits the paint, which colors does the solution absorb and which colors does it transmit? In this activity students will observe the basic principles of absorption spectroscopy based on absorbance and transmittance of visible light. Concepts • Spectroscopy • Visible light spectrum • Absorbance and transmittance • Quantized electron energy levels Background The visible light spectrum (380−750 nm) is the light we are able to see. This spectrum is often referred to as “ROY G BIV” as a mnemonic device for the order of colors it produces. Violet has the shortest wavelength (about 400 nm) and red has the longest wavelength (about 650–700 nm). Many common chemical solutions can be used as filters to demonstrate the principles of absorption and transmittance of visible light in the electromagnetic spectrum. For example, copper(II) chloride (blue), ammonium dichromate (orange), iron(III) chloride (yellow), and potassium permanganate (red) are all different colors because they absorb different wave- lengths of visible light. In this demonstration, students will observe the principles of absorption spectroscopy using a variety of different colored solutions. Food coloring will be substituted for the orange and yellow chemical solutions mentioned above. Rare earth metal solutions, erbium and praseodymium chloride, will be used to illustrate line absorption spectra.

  • Electromagnetic Spectrum
    Electromagnetic Spectrum Why do some things have colors? What makes color? Why do fast food restaurants use red lights to keep food warm? Why don’t they use green or blue light? Why do X-rays pass through the body and let us see through the body? What has the radio to do with radiation? What are the night vision devices that the army uses in night time fighting? To find the answers to these questions we have to examine the electromagnetic spectrum. FASTER THAN A SPEEDING BULLET MORE POWERFUL THAN A LOCOMOTIVE These words were used to introduce a fictional superhero named Superman. These same words can be used to help describe Electromagnetic Radiation. Electromagnetic Radiation is like a two member team racing together at incredible speeds across the vast regions of space or flying from the clutches of a tiny atom. They travel together in packages called photons. Moving along as a wave with frequency and wavelength they travel at the velocity of 186,000 miles per second (300,000,000 meters per second) in a vacuum. The photons are so tiny they cannot be seen even with powerful microscopes. If the photon encounters any charged particles along its journey it pushes and pulls them at the same frequency that the wave had when it started. The waves can circle the earth more than seven times in one second! If the waves are arranged in order of their wavelength and frequency the waves form the Electromagnetic Spectrum. They are described as electromagnetic because they are both electric and magnetic in nature.

  • Color Schemes Are Combinations of Colors
    Color is the reflection of light off of an object into our eyes. Our eyes then read the speed of the light and tell us which color that object is. There are two major categories under the heading of color, they are: 1. Neutrals 2. Colors Neutrals are (combinations of) black and white and all grays Colors consist of: Primary colors Secondary colors Intermediate colors also known as Tertiary colors Primary Colors: are the basic colors that you cannot make by mixing. They are natural colors found in nature. They are red, yellow, and blue. Secondary Colors: are made by mixing any two secondary colors. The secondary colors are orange, violet and green. Intermediate Colors: are made by mixing a primary and a secondary color. The secondary colors are, red-violet, blue-violet, blue-green, yellow-green, yellow-orange and red-orange. Color schemes are combinations of colors. There are many different types of color combinations, however, only four of the most basic are included here. They are: • Complementary colors • Analogous colors • Warm & Cool colors • Monochromatic colors Complementary Colors: are any two colors that are opposite each other on the color wheel. Analogous Colors: are any two colors that are adjacent to (or next to) each other on the color wheel. Warm & Cool Colors: warm colors are those colors that contain combinations of red and yellow. There are six. To help you remember what a warm color is, think of the sun or fire. Cool colors are those colors that contain green and blue. There are six of these too.

  • Critical Thinking Activity: the Electromagnetic Spectrum
    Student Sheet 1 CRITICAL THINKING ACTIVITY: THE ELECTROMAGNETIC SPECTRUM There are many kinds of energy in the universe. The energy given off from the sun is radiant energy, scientifically called electromagnetic radiation. Produced by nuclear reactions at the core of the sun, this energy streams from the surface of the sun in waves of different lengths. The shortest and longest wavelengths are invisible to our eyes, but the medium wavelengths are the visible radiation we call sunlight. Most of the sun’s energy is released in these visible wavelengths. All substances have kinetic energy that is expressed by vibrations of their atoms or molecules. The vibrations result in radiation. The electromagnetic (EM) spectrum is a name given to all of the different types of radiation. Electromagnetic radiation is energy that spreads out as it travels. Visible light radiation that comes from a lamp in someone’s house or radio wave radiation that comes from a radio station are two types of electromagnetic radiation. Other examples of EM radiation are microwaves, infrared and ultraviolet radiation, X- rays and gamma rays. Hotter, more energetic objects and events create higher energy radiation than cool objects. Only extremely hot objects or particles moving at very high speeds can create high-energy radiation like X-rays and gamma rays. 1 Student Sheet 2 A common assumption is that radio waves are completely different than X-rays and gamma rays. They are produced in very different ways, and we detect them in different ways. However, radio waves, visible light, X-rays, and all the other parts of the electromagnetic spectrum are fundamentally the same.

  • Which Regions of the Electromagnetic Spectrum Do Plants Use to Drive Photosynthesis?
    Which regions of the electromagnetic spectrum do plants use to drive photosynthesis? Green Light: The Forgotten Region of the Spectrum. In the past, plant physiologists used green light as a safe light during experiments that required darkness. It was assumed that plants reflected most of the green light and that it did not induce photosynthesis. Yes, plants do reflect green light but human vision sensitivity peaks in the green region at about 560 nm, which allows us to preferentially see green. Plants do not reflect all of the green light that falls on them but they reflect enough for us to detect it. Read on to find out what the role of green light is in photosynthesis. The electromagnetic spectrum: Light Visible light ranges from low blue to far-red light and is described as the wavelengths between 380 nm and 750 nm, although this varies between individuals. The region between 400 nm and 700 nm is what plants use to drive photosynthesis and is typically referred to as Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR). There is an inverse relationship between wavelength and quantum energy, the higher the wavelength the lower quantum energy and vice versa. Plants use wavelengths outside of PAR for the phenomenon known as photomorphogenesis, which is light regulated changes in development, morphology, biochemistry and cell structure and function. The effects of different wavelengths on plant function and form are complex and are proving to be an interesting area of study for many plant scientists. The use of specific and adjustable LEDs allows us to tease apart the roles of specific areas of the spectrum in photosynthesis.
