Highly accurate laser simulations on CD-ROM
PRODUCT
INFORMATION
Virtual Labs: Light combines easy-to-use
experiments and highly accurate
simulations with over 40 reproducible lab worksheets to help build an
understanding of reflection and mirrors, refraction and lenses, and
colors.
Carefully sequenced levels of virtual experiments - basic, extension,
and
challenge provide a safe means to perform hands-on activities with
lasers and
optical tools. Users can follow pre-designed labs to learn about
particular
aspects of light, and then create virtual models of telescopes,
cameras, and
other everyday devices.
