yesterday's class was pretty much about Newton's Corpuscular Theory, but first thing we had to hand in the four theories( tactile, emission, wave, particles), in which we had to describe who when and what do the theories explain, and draw a diagram for each illustrating how they work.
Then Ms K explained about the Newton's Corpuscular Theory, the theory explains that light has small particles called corpuscles which travel in straight line, good evidence that light travel in straight line is a shadow of a building in sunny day, you will notice a nice smooth straight line along the sides of the wall.
Later we worked on a yellow sheet "Chart for Evaluating the Models of Light" then ms K went over it on the class. Last but not least we were given a homework due Wednesday "Contributions to the Determination of the Speed of Light" in which you have to pick a scientist and fill the boxes
