this week in science

this week in science, class, some of the science ideas that i learnt were that when the laser pointer points the laser at something and it bounces off the solid object that it was pointed, and reflects to many different places sending light rays all over the place. And so, the light from the laser pointer comes into your eye after reflecting off the wall and thats how you are able to see the laser point on the wall on teh other side of the room.

I learnt this by thinking

"how are we all (everyone in the class) able to see the little dot from the laser on the wall from the angles we were looking from. so, we decided on the conclusion that the light reflects off the wall and

the rays go in many directions going into our eyes. then we are able to see the dot there."

It is important to know this because in life, if we do go into the field of medicine for the eye, we should know how the eye works in order to diagnose a problem in the eye.
