Infrared light is given off by any object that is losing heat. The human body is almost always losing heat to the environment. Why, then, don't human bodies glow at night, since they are emitting light?

Infared light is black so it blends in with the night.

When we are born, we are dipped into a special chemical that deactivates the infared light so that predators cannot see us glowing at night.

Light hits a mirror, making an angle of 15 degrees relative to a line drawn perpendicular to the mirror's surface. What angle does the reflected light make with the same line?

a 15 degree angle relative to that line

a 10 degree angle relative to that line

a 20 degree angle relative to that line

When light travels from one substance to another, what two things can happen to the direction of the light ray's travel?

The light ray can be reflected or refracted.

The light ray can be rainbowed or removed.

The light ray can be split or spared.

The light ray can be deleted or detained.

In a physics experiment, a light ray is examined as it travels from air into glass. If the angle that the light ray makes with a line perpendicular to the glass surface is measured, will the refracted ray bend toward or away from that line?

the light bends towards the perpendicular

the light bends away from the perpendicular

When you look at objects underwater from above the water, they appear to be at a different position. Why?

When light travels from water to air, it bends. This causes your mind to form a false image of the object in a slightly different location.

When you put an object in water, it will always absorb water. This causes the object to grow very quickly which makes the object take up more space.

The object appears to be in a different location because water allows it to quickly teleport making it difficult to know its true location.

A mountain climber finds that her sunglasses are not blocking glare from a vertical rock wall. What can you hypothesize about the polarizing filters in her sunglasses?

She bought a pair of sunglasses with vertically polarized filters.

She doesn't know how to use the polarized sunglasses.

She bought a defective pair of polarized sunglasses.

She forgot to activate the polarized filters.

Why does the sky look blue on sunny days?

On sunny days, the sunlight travels a shorter distance throught Earth's atmosphere. It scatters blue light in all directions much more than the other colors of light.

Because blue is the best color.

With the clouds out of the way the sky is easier to see.

In order for you to see a rainbow, what three conditions must be met?

1. water droplets suspended in the air 2. the sun must be shining on them from behind you 3. the sun must be at a certain angle (or height in the sky)

1. water droplets suspended in the air 2. the sun must be shining on them from behind a cloud 3. the sun must be at a certain angle (or height in the sky)

1. water droplets suspended in heat 2. the sun must be shining on them from behind you 3. the sun must be at a certain angle (or height in the sky)

What is the difference between a converging lens and a diverging lens?

A converging lens causes light rays to bend so that they converge to a single point. Diverging lenses cause light rays to bend away from each other.

A diverging lens causes light rays to bend so that they converge to a single point. Converging lenses cause light rays to bend away from each other.

What is special about the way the eye focuses light as compared to the way a camera focuses light?

The eye focuses light by changing the shape of its lens. A camera focuses light by moving the position of the lens.

The eye focuses light by changing the shape of the light. A camera focuses light by moving the position of the light.

The eye focuses light by moving the position of the lens. A camera focuses light by changing the shape of its lens.

The eye focuses light by changing the color of its lens. A camera focuses light by moving the position of the lens.

A shirt is dyed so that it looks violet. What colors of light does the dye absorb?

red, yellow, orange, green, blue, and indigo

red, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet

yellow, orange, blue, green, white, and black

A cyan dye is made of a mixture of substances that absorb all light colors except blue and green. If you took a cyan piece of paper and placed it in a dark room and shined red light on it, what would you see? What would you see if you shined green light on it?

In green light, the paper would look green.

In green light, the paper would look orange.

In green light, the paper would look white.

In green light, the paper would look black.
