SLIDE 2
  • Color wheel poster shows

additive and subtractive color mixing

  • Subtractive color mixing can

be discussed using energy conservation

SLIDE 3

Concept Map for Color

Energy is conserved Energy is conserved when light interacts with matter: E in = E reflected + E transmitted + E absorbed Color results from selective absorption of visible light

slide-4
SLIDE 4

Energy conservation: colored objects (R +G +B)

  • R

G +B

  • G

= B

Energy = energy + energy in absorbed transmitted Energy = energy + energy in absorbed transmitted

= G +B

SLIDE 5

Interaction of Light with Matter in context

  • f Energy Conservation

Energy in = energy transmitted (scattered) Energy in = energy reflected + energy transmitted + energy absorbed Energy in (heating) = energy emitted (light) “Potential energy” of electron in atom = energy of emitted photon

SLIDE 6

Understanding reasons for seasons in context of energy conservation

slide-7
SLIDE 7

Energy conservation: temperature of the entire Earth

Energy in (sunlight) = Energy absorbed (heating) = Energy out (infrared light) (Simplification: Actual energy flows are complex)

slide-8
SLIDE 8

Energy conservation: climate variation

Energy in (from sunlight) = Energy absorbed (heating)
