The student wonders why the intensity is affected by the orientation of her sunglasses. The light coming from the sky toward her sunglasses has most likely undergone A. absorption B. diffraction C. polarization D. refraction 2. During an investigation, a student aimed a beam of light through a round opening in an opaque barrier. The light passing through the opening travelled to a screen a short distance away.

12 Inuit people traditionally call the Great Bear constellation Tukturjuit, or stars representing a caribou. Describe two ways in which the stars of Tukturjuit were important to the Inuit traditional lifestyle. 32. The nuclear fusion at the Sun s core releases gamma-ray photons. Explain why the photons that emerge from the Sun s surface are visible-light photons and infrared-light photons rather than gamma-ray photons. 33. Explain why the receiving dish of a radio telescope must be larger than an optical telescope in order for radio telescopes to have adequate resolution.
13 The nuclear fusion at the Sun s core releases gamma-ray photons. Explain why these photons emerge from the Sun s surface as visible light and infrared-light photons. 35. Refer to the following diagrams. While observing a star, an astronomer finds that its spectrum includes the lines for strontium. When she examines the spectral lines for strontium in the starlight, she finds that the lines are slightly misaligned with strontium s known spectrum. Explain this difference between the known and observed spectral lines for strontium in the starlight. 36. When using X-ray technology in a medical diagnosis, there are both risks and benefits to the patient. 2 a. Describe one risk.
14 b. Describe one benefit. 2 c. A physician makes a decision not to take an X-ray image of a seemingly minor injury to a patient s knee. Assume the physician considered the risks and benefits of taking the X-ray image before making her decision. Which set of factors dominated the decision mode by the physician the risks or the benefits? Explain your answer. Submit your completed to your teacher for assessment. Then return to page 22 of the Distributed Learning Student Guide, and begin the Chapter 2 Summary.
