| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What travels in a straight line until reflected or refracted by another object? | Light |
| Light is reflected when it strikes or bounces off what? | Mirrors or shiny objects |
| Light is refracted or changes direction, when passing from one medium to another, such as what? | Air, Water or Glass |
| Transparent objects let the light do what? | Pass through them, without scattering it or altering its path |
| Light moves in what direction? | A straight line |
| What type of glasses or contacts does a person that is farsighted need to wear in order to see correctly? | Convex Glasses or Lens |
| Translucent lighting is light that allows what? | Some light to pass through but doesn’t give you a clearly visible image or picture |
| Opaque matter is matter that does what to light? | Does not let any light pass through it |
| What does opaque matter do to light? | It absorbs light or reflects it |
| What is the definition of reflection? | Reflection is defined as light that bounces off a surface |
| What is the definition of refraction? | Refraction is defined as light that bends when moving to another area |
| What is absorb light defined as? | Absorb light means light that goes into or stops in an object |
| What is convex lens? | Convex lens makes objects appear larger and closer |
| What is concave lens? | Concave lens makes objects appear smaller and farther apart |
| What is a form of energy resulting from the existence of charged particles as a current? | Electricity |
| What happens to an object in which electrons become positively charged to an object? | It builds up static electricity or static buildup |
| Where are positive (+) and negative (-) charge located in clouds that cause static electricity to build up? | Positive charges build in the top of clouds and negative charges build in the bottom |
| What type of glasses or contact lens must a person wear if they are nearsighted in order see correctly? | Concave Glasses or Lens |
| A material through which an electric charge can move easily is called what? | Conductor |
| What are some of the best conductors are made of? | Copper, Gold, Silver, and Aluminum |
| What are materials that prevent the flow of electric charge known as? | Resistor |
| What are strong resistors that slowdown or stop electric currents from flowing? | Insulators |
| Strong insulators are mainly made of what type of materials? | Rubber, Plastic, Glass, or Dry cotton |
| Does water refract or reflect light when it shines in the morning? | It refracts and reflects lights |
| What happens when light a dark, heavy object that blocks out the sunlight, like a large building? | The light energy is absorbed |
| What is the speed of light? | 186,000 meters per second |
| What type of circuit has only one path in which it flows through cables or wire setups? | Series Circuit |
| What type of circuit has more than one path to follow? | Parallel Circuit |
| An electrical circuit starts from what side of the battery and ends at what side of the battery? | Start at the negative side of the battery and ends at the positive side of the battery |
