Project Title: Reflection and Refraction
Project Abstract: For my science fair project, I will be proving that light can bend.
It's not easy because you need the right equipment and materials for it.
Glass prisms, mirrors, and small flash lights are the materials that I used.
First, I performed the experiment on "reflection".
I held the light at an angle from a mirror, and found out that light bounced off the mirror facing the other way.
This way, I could see the light on the wall as I experimented.
The next thing I did was to perform the experiment on "refraction".
As I experimented, I put a prism in front of the flashlight, and the light bent and went the other way.
