Consider the right triangular prism below:

Which color will bend the most when the light leaves the prism?

(a) Red

(b) Green

(c) Blue

What Big Idea did you use to find your answer?

(a) Law of Malus

(b) Law of Reflection

(c) Snell's Law

(d) Lenz' Law

(e) Faraday's Law

Which of the following problem-solving steps is not useful for finding the angles at which the different colors will exit the prism.

(a) Find the angle between the normal to the  glass surface and the ray of white light.

(b) Use Snell’s Law: θθ to find the refracted angle of each color after entering the prism.

(c) All of these steps are useful.

(d) Construct a right triangle to find the angle with respect to the normal where each ray strikes the vertical glass surface (θ).

(e) Use Snell’s Law: θθ to find the refracted angle of each color after leaving the prism.

When violet light and yellow light shine on a metal surface, only one color produces an electric current. Write 3 - 4 sentences describing the effect of each light on the metal. Would increasing the intensity of either type of light have an effect on the current produced? How does quantization help to explain these observations? (6 points) Please don't write too long :)
