Wave Properties worksheet

- Plot --> sin x over 0-->10 range

- Add Manipulate to function --> a*sin x

- Add Manipulate to function --> a*sin b*x

- Add Manipulate to function --> a*sin (b*x + c)

- Add Manipulate to function --> a*sin (b*x + c) + d

Linear Combination of "Colors": An Igor Activity

1) Collect the UV-Vis spectra for red, yellow, and blue food coloring solutions.

2) Download ".csv" file (ASCII format) to a USB drive and return to your computer.

3) "Load" these three sets of data (6 waves in total) into Igor and plot all three data sets on a single graph (360 nm - 800 nm).

4) Now, collect the UV-Vis spectrum of a mixture provided; download, load into Igor, and plot of separate graph.

We would now like to analyze this UV-Vis data of the mixture to determine the amount of each of the dyes present. What we are doing is "simulating" the mixture spectrum.

5) "Duplicate" the mixture wave associated with the absorbance.

6) ...working on this more later...
