  This lab will explore several related aspects of light refraction. Everyone knows that a strong magnifying glass can concentrate rays of the sun onto a point and potentially start a fire or at least scorch wood or paper.  But some people have asked Internet help sites if they need to worry about where they … Read more

MOHA 650 Discussion 3

The Tableau website displays several excellent white papers on current trends.  Please read a white paper of your choice from the following link and provide a quick summary of the paper for your classmates.  Describe what the elements in the paper mean for multiple stakeholders (example:  the healthcare IT professional, the healthcare executive, patients, etc.)

  A laser produces a beam of a single frequency or monochromatic light because of the collective light emission from many atoms. When the optical media in which the beam is of correct geometry, the resulting light beam is also coherent. In this case, it means the waves of light are traveling together with their … Read more

  A mass spectrometer is a device that determines what elements and isotopes are present in a sample.  Element refers to the type of atom, such as hydrogen, carbon, iron, etc.  Isotopes are atoms of the same element but with different numbers of neutrons.  Mass spectrometers are sometimes used in forensic science when detectives find … Read more

  Much of the light you see comes from atoms and molecules which are so hot they vibrate and collide with high energy motion. Every time an atom changes the direction it is moving, the acceleration of electrons at the exterior of the atom causes light to be emitted. Objects, at temperatures like the surface … Read more
