Let's Learn About Light!

What is light made of?

• Light is made of photons.

• Light is made of particles and waves.

• Light is made of energy.

• Light is made of waves.

What is a photon?

• A photon is a wave that cannot be detected by any instruments.

• A photon is a type of atom found in all matter.

• A photon is a particle with mass that travels at the speed of sound.

• A photon is a massless particle that represents a quantum of light and electromagnetic radiation.

How does light travel?

• Light travels faster in water than in a vacuum.

• Light travels in waves and particles (photons) at a speed of about 299,792 km/s in a vacuum.

• Light travels only in straight lines.

• Light is a solid substance that moves through space.

Does light behave like a particle, a wave, or both?

• Only a particle

• Neither a wave nor a particle

• Only a wave

• Both

What happens when light hits a transparent object?

• Light creates heat and disappears.

• Light passes through, bends, and may reflect.

• Light is absorbed completely.

• Light splits into different colors without bending.

Can you name a transparent object?

• Air

• Water

• Glass

• Wood

What is an opaque object?

• An opaque object is one that does not allow light to pass through.

• An opaque object is transparent and can be seen through easily.

• An opaque object is one that allows all light to pass through.

• An opaque object is one that reflects all light without absorbing it.

Can light pass through wood?

• Yes, light can pass through wood.

• Light can partially pass through wood.

• No, light cannot pass through wood.

• Wood is transparent to light.

Is water transparent or opaque?

• Solid

• Reflective

• Transparent

• Translucent

What happens to light when it hits an opaque object?

• Light is completely destroyed upon contact.

• Light is absorbed or reflected when it hits an opaque object.

• Light passes through without any interaction.

• Light creates a shadow behind the object.
