Here is what we did today, lasers! |
What did we learn today? One thing we learned is that you shouldn't look directly into a laser. Real dumb if you did. Another thing we learned was color mixing, not paint mixing cause we learned that in like kindergarten. The type of mixing we talked about was light mixing. The primary colors for lights are red, blue, and green. Red and green equal yellow. Red and blue equal magenta. Green and blue equal cyan. When you add them all together the color you will then get is white. When you add certain colors in different scenarios you can get these results:
Magenta + Yellow = pink, because magenta is made of red and blue and yellow is made of red and green. Red, green and blue equal white but you are also left with the extra red so red plus white equals pink.
Magenta + Yellow = pink, because magenta is made of red and blue and yellow is made of red and green. Red, green and blue equal white but you are also left with the extra red so red plus white equals pink.
That's a really cool picture. I couldn't get the laser to show in mine because it was too dark.. Anyway, the example at the end really helped me because I have trouble getting past the color mixing we did in Kindergarten, if you know what I mean. Nice post!
ReplyDeleteToo bad the lasers didn't show up any brighter in your picture... Wish they did. That was so much fun!
