Light
Refraction and Reflection
Light Energy
Light Energy -radiant energy that our eyes can't see from the visible part of the electromagnetic spectrum.Light energy is electromagnetic radiation. This means it is a combination of electrical and magnetic energy. Light energy is given off by electrons in an object. Light moves in waves. All light energy is in a spectrum that include waves with different frequent and Wave length.
Absorption
Absorption of light occurs when an object does not reflect or transmit the light. Black objects absorb all light and white objects absorb no light.
Reflection
Reflection is when an object bonces off an object. Lots of things reflect light. Most things that reflect light are smooth surfaces. Such as glass,and still pond of water.
Refraction
Refraction is when light travels though one object and bends it. The light travels in a sraight line and when it is refracted it is bent.
