harshaohri - You might not be getting replies because there is not enough information in your question. If you are working on a project you found in the Science Buddies web pages or another resource let us know which one it was. Also, what difficulties are you experiencing? The 'experts' have to know what the issues and problems are to be able to assist.

If you're in the process of looking for a science project having to do with light, you might try looking at these options:

https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science- ... p009.shtml

or you might be interested in reading about optics for ideas:

If you've already chosen a project, as Rick said, you'll have to give us more info before we can be of assistance!

Hope that helps,

Does it need to be experimental? If not, I would recommend doing a compare/contrast of the human eye and a camera. This project could be biological and physical in nature.

If not, I would recommend the second link offered in the previous comment. Snell's law is universally taught in physics courses in any discussion of optics...

For more, wikipedia does a pretty good job of explaining it:
