Creating The Solution

Telescope:

Kaleidoscope:

Primary Goal- Research, design and build a telescope and microscope

Secondary Goal- Construct our own microscope lens

Third Goal- Research, Design, and build a kaleidoscope

Questions???

MYP Grading Scale

Developing Ideas

For our telescope:

  • Eyepiece: Double Convex: Focal Length=15cm
  • Objective: Double Convex: Focal Length=50cm
  • Total length of telescope=65cm

Creating the Solution

For our Microscope:

  • Eyepiece: Double Convex: Focal Length=13.5cm
  • Objective: Double Convex: Focal Length= 50cm
  • Total length of microscope= 17cm

We used the lens with a 50cm focal length in both our telescope and our microscope

What went well:

  • Teamwork
  • Time Management
  • Learning Concepts
  • Division of the work
  • Lenses
  • Ray Diagrams
  • Telescope Designs+Components
  • Microscope Designs+Components
  • Kaleidoscope Designs

Different Types of Telescopes:

1. Refracting- What we are using

2. Reflecting

Analyzing

Creating the Solution

Single Lens Microscope:

Problems:

  • Thievery
  • Illness
  • Frustration; both with lenses and ray diagrams

Milla:

  • Found new lenses after our original ones were stolen
  • Caught up quickly after we started behind when Milla was sick
  • Did more research to fix problems with ray diagramming

Developing Ideas

  • How different types of lenses work with each other
  • How to apply focal lengths into building a telescope and microscope
  • How to effectively manage and divide up work
  • I learned how to use focal lengths to create ray diagram for the lenses
  • I learned how to create a microscope lens
  • I learned how difficult it was rto find lenses that work well with each other

For our Kaleidoscope:

  • Three paneled mirrors running the length of the tube
  • Magnifying glass at the end of the tube
  • Container with beads at the very end
  • Length of tube=24cm;

Total Length=27cm
