Science Study Guide

Scattering is

• When particles move in the same direction.

• When light particles move around in a random direction.

• When light rays reflect off small particles.

• When light waves traveling in one direction are made to travel in many directions.

The definition of Translucent is?

• Allowing some light to pass through but not all light.

• Allowing all light to pass through.

• Reflection of light off of an object.

• Absorbing all of the light.

A milk jug is?

• Translucent

• Opaque

The definition of Transparent is?

• Very bright.

• Very dark.

• You can see straight through it.

• You can't see straight through it.

Diffuse reflection is

• Reflection of light from a rough surface.

• Reflection of light from a smooth surface.

• An image that forms where rays converge.

The definition of opaque is?

• You can see straight through it.

• You can't see through it at all.

• You can see blurry images through it.

• The light is transmitted through the object.

The law of reflection is

• when a wave is reflected from a surface the angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence.

• The angle of reflection creates a virtual image.

• In image that forms from light rays.
