Question
Answer
What happens when waves interact with matter?   The can be reflected, transmitted or a combination of both.  
🗑
Can waves that are transmitted be refracted?   No  
🗑
Waves that strike a surface that is transparent, like water, at an angle, there direction changes are called what?   Refracted  
🗑
What happens when waves fall on a transparent medium?   Waves are partly reflected and partly refracted  
🗑
What is reflection?   Reflection is the bouncing back of particles or wave that strikes a boundary between two media.  
🗑
What is the law of reflection?   The law of reflection states that the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection are equal to each other.  
🗑
What is an incident wave?   A light wave that strikes a boundary.  
🗑
What is a reflective wave?   A light wave that bounces off a boundary.  
🗑
What is a normal?   A normal is a line drawn perpendicular to the point where the incident ray strikes the barrier.  
🗑
What kind of images do plain mirror produce?   Virtual images  
🗑
What are the shapes that plain mirrors can be grouped by?   Plane, convex, and concave  
🗑
What is an image?   An image is a likeness or reproduction of an object.  
🗑
What is the difference between virtual and real?   Virtual images in a mirror are images that seem to be in or behind the mirror and are always upright. Real images are formed by converging light rays and can be displayed on a screen. These images are inverted.  
🗑
What is an echo?   An echo is a reflective sound.
