Chapter 1 Refraction of Light 1. Reflection always occurs when a ray hits any surface such that: a. The incident [SI] ray and the reflected ray [IR) lie on the same side with respect to the surface. b. The incident ray [SI] and the reflected ray [IR) lie on opposite sides with respect to the Normal (NI). c. The angle of incidence (i) is always equal to the angle of reflection (r). R R N N Reflected ray Reflected ray Normal (Perpendicular to the surface at the

Light that takes a path from point A to point B will take the same reverse path in going from point B to point A, even if reflection or refraction is involved. So if you can’t see the driver, the driver can’t see you. 13. In spearing a fish with a spear, you should aim below the apparent position of the fish to account for the refraction of the light that you see coming from

• Individuality- I want to make my presence to be made known and acknowledged. If everyone in the world was named Marcus Weston, I want people to say, “you know with one I’m talking about.” There can only be one me and I want that only one to be special and valuable by any means. • Will- I have been in some tough situations in my life especially being in the Marine Corps, I can tell you personally once the will is gone from a person there is nothing you can say or do to get it back.
