  1. Visible light waves

  2. Visible light waves How do light waves behave when they strike an object?

  3. Light waves vocabulary • Absorbed:

  4. Light waves vocabulary • Absorbed: Light is taken in and goes nowhere.

  5. Light waves vocabulary • Absorbed: Light is taken in and goes nowhere. • Reflected:

  6. Light waves vocabulary • Absorbed: Light is taken in and goes nowhere. • Reflected: Light is taken in and bounces off.

  7. Light waves vocabulary • Absorbed: Light is taken in and goes nowhere. • Reflected: Light is taken in and bounces off. • Transmitted:

  8. Light waves vocabulary • Absorbed: Light is taken in and goes nowhere. • Reflected: Light is taken in and bounces off. • Transmitted: Light is taken in and passes through.

  9. Light waves vocabulary • Opaque:

  10. Light waves vocabulary • Opaque: Light does not pass through. Light is either absorbed or reflected.

  11. Light waves vocabulary • Opaque: Light does not pass through. Light is either absorbed or reflected. • Transparent:

  12. Light waves vocabulary • Opaque: Light does not pass through. Light is either absorbed or reflected. • Transparent: Light passes straight through an object.

  13. Light waves vocabulary • Opaque: Light does not pass through. Light is either absorbed or reflected. • Transparent: Light passes straight through an object. • Translucent:

  14. Light waves vocabulary • Opaque: Light does not pass through. Light is either absorbed or reflected. • Transparent: Light passes straight through an object. • Translucent: Light passes through an object but objects on other side are blurred / jumbled.

  15. Black Paper

  16. Black Paper The paper is considered opaque. Light wasabsorbed.

  17. Mirror

  18. The mirror is opaque. The light is reflected. Mirror

  19. Window

  20. The window is transparent. The light is transmitted. Window

  21. Wax-paper

  22. The wax-paper is translucent. Wax-paper The light is transmitted but “jumbled”.

  23. Reflection vs. Refraction

  24. Light bouncing off of a surface. Reflection vs. Refraction

  25. Light bouncing off of a surface. Light bends because it changes speeds as it changes mediums. Reflection vs. Refraction

  26. Light bouncing off of a surface. Light bends because it changes speeds as it changes mediums. Reflection vs. Refraction

  27. Light bouncing off of a surface. Angle of incidence = Angle of reflection Light bends because it changes speeds as it changes mediums. Reflection vs. Refraction

  28. Light bouncing off of a surface. Angle of incidence = Angle of reflection Light bends because it changes speeds as it changes mediums. Reflection vs. Refraction
