experiment_011: making a laser beam

Experiment_011:
For this experiment we wanted to test whether a flash light can be converted into a laser beam through the use of a magnifying glass. The hypothesis is based on the laser defined as a regular light but with its rays parallel to each other, resulting in a concentrated light projection. In figures 03 and 04 one can see the light from the flash light converted to laser beam kind of light (meaning its rays are concentrated/ parallel to each other). The result can be compared to the figure 04 actual laser beam light projection.
Items used in this experiment: flash light, laser beam, magnifying glass.
