QuestionAnswer
Concave Mirror curves inward like inside a bowl and rays converge (come together)as they bounce back.
convex mirror curves outward and light rays spread out as they bounce back.
Transparent materials that transmit all light. Light goes through them
Translucent materials that scatter the light as it passes through them
Plane Mirror a mirror that is flat
Refraction Light moving from one transparent material to another undergoes a change in direction
Refelction The law of reflection states that the angle of an incoming ray of light and the angle of the reflected light are always equal.
Evidence of waves Interference and polorization provide evidence that light is a wave.
Luminous Something that produces light.
Opaque material reflects or absorbs all light
transmitted When light passes right through an object
reflected When light bounces off an object
absorbed When light is taken in or trapped by an object
refracted When light rays enter a new medium at an angle, the change in speed causes them to bend
Incandescent When visible light is given off at high tempatures
electromagnetic wave Electromagnetic waves are formed when an electric field couples with a magnetic field
Black body radiation idealized material that perfectly absorbs and perfectly emits electromagnetic radiation.
Consistent law principle The laws of physics are the same in all referance frames that are moving at a constant velocity with respect to one another.
Consistancy of speed principle The speed of light in empty space has the same valur for all obnservers regardless of their velocity
index of refraction The ratio of c to the speed of light in some transparent material v
interference of light

Angle of incidents Equals angle of reflection 0i=0r
index of refraction speed of light in vacumm/speed of light in material n=c/v
speed of light in a vacuum (wavelength)(frequency) c=kf

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
