Bell Work-Nov 10-5th

When light travels through air into a prism, it bends and separates into many colors. In which other situation does light bend? (5.6C)

• When light moves through air into water

• When light hits a wall

• When light passes through outer space

• When light hits a mirror

The diagram shows a fish being viewed from above the water. The fish appears to be closer to the surface than it really is. What causes this difference? (5.6C)

• Light is reflected.

• Light is refracted.

• Light is focused.

• Light is blocked.

Which of the following is an example of reflection?

• telescope

• convex lens

• concave lens

• shiny pan

Which illustration best shows light being reflected?

• 
• 
• 
• 

The diagram shows a periscope used to see objects that are behind or under a barrier. What makes it possible to see an object when looking through a periscope? The periscope –

• separates the light into different colors

• absorbs the light rays passing through it

• magnifies small objects so they can be seen

• contains mirrors that reflect the object

A student sees a mirror image of a tree in a pond on a very still day. The student is able to see a mirror image of the tree in the pond because light striking the surface of the water –

• is absorbed.

• bends downward.

• becomes brighter.

• bounces off.

Gabrielle uses a hand lens to make observations about a stamp. Why does the hand lens cause the image of the stamp to appear larger than the real stamp?

• The light is reflected.

• The light is absorbed.

• The light is amplified.

• The light is refracted.

The arrows in the diagram below represent light. Which diagram best shows how a glass lens refracts light?

• 
• 
• 
• 

Which of the following tools can be used to refract light?

• Hand Lens

• cardboard

• foil

• flashlight
