How does light travel

Light is a type of energy that can move through space in its natural
state. Light comes in waves or electromagnetic waves from the sun
to the Earth. The term "electromagnetic spectrum" refers to the
entire spectrum of electromagnetic waves. Radio waves,
microwaves, infrared rays, visible light, ultraviolet rays, X rays, and
gamma rays are all examples of electromagnetic waves. Radio waves
are the longest waves in the spectrum, and they are categorized by
wavelength. The electromagnetic spectrum includes far more than
visible light. Between infrared and ultraviolet rays, it exists. All the
colors of the rainbow are present in visible light: red, orange, yellow,
green, purple, blue, and violet.

What happens when light strikes objects?

When light strikes an object, the light can be reflected, or bounced


off. The light might also be absorbed, or taken in by the object. Or
the light can be transmitted or passed through the object. When light
strikes an item, it can either be reflected or absorbed by it. It can also
be transferred or passed through the object to another system
component known as an object. Opaque objects are those that can't
be seen through. Transparent materials enable light to travel
through when it strikes them. Translucent materials allow just a little
amount of light to pass through when it touches them. When looking
through a transparent item, you can see what's behind it, but the
details are lost.
What is reflection?

Everything reflects light in some way. Different things, on the other


hand, reflect light in different ways. The laser rays from your body hit
the mirror's flat surface and are reflected on a regular basis. The way
an object's surface reflects light determines what you view when you
look at it. Straight lines can be used to describe light rays to
demonstrate how they move and reflect. Light refracts off the items
in this way. When parallel light waves contact an uneven or bumpy
surface, each ray is reflected at a different angle. A wall, for example,
may appear smooth on the surface but contains several tiny bumps.
Light scatters or is reflected at different angles as a result of these
imperfections.

How do mirrors work?

A mirror is a piece of glass with one side covered with a smooth,


silvery surface. Depending on the form of the mirror, an image in a
mirror can be the same size as the item, or it might be bigger or
smaller. Light travels through glass because it is transparent. The
silver coating on the back of the glass, on the other hand, is
transparent. Reflected rays of light create an image, which is a
duplicate of the item. The surface of a plane mirror is flat. When you
look into a flat mirror, you will see a reflection that is the same size
as you. Your reflection seems to be the same size as you are in front
of the mirror. A virtual picture is an image you see in a plane mirror.
You can't touch your reflection behind a mirror. Figure 4 explains
how a dancer's virtual picture is created using a plane mirror. The
dancer's reflected light rays strike the mirror. Curved mirrors, unlike
plane mirrors, produce reflected pictures that are not the same size
as the reflected item. When you look into a convex mirror, you see a
smaller version of yourself. When you look into a concave mirror, the
picture you see of yourself seems larger than it actually is, as well as
farther away from the mirror than you are. Both concave and convex
mirrors are helpful in different ways.
