Ray diagrams
Why can you see your reflection in some objects? In this video we will look at ray diagrams for reflection, refraction and colour absorption. Visible light is part of the electromagnetic spectrum. Light is a transverse wave, and travels...

Volume and Density: Volume and Mass
This series of videos explores the concepts of volume, mass, and density. The means by which volume and density are calculated is highlighted. Everyday examples of each make the concepts easy to understand.

Refraction of Seismic Waves, Cosmology & Astronomy
Mr. Khan uses the metaphor of a car to help explain the change in the direction of waves as they hit a boundary between two mediums. He then goes on to explain the relationship between the earth's structure and density and the waves'...

Bill Nye The Science Guy on Light, Bending & Bouncing
Beam me up, Bill! Explore how beams of light behave when they strike flat and curved surfaces. Bill bends light using a nifty contraption that streams three beams through a straight and a curved piece of plastic. He also defines and...

Iris: Seismic Wave Behavior: A Single Boundary Refracts & Reflects
This introduction to seismic wave behavior describes Snell's Law and how it applies to layers in the earth. It addresses reflected, refracted, critically refracted, and head waves. Seismic waves travel at different speeds through...
