Elaborate on the behavior of a sound wave when it strikes a surface and reflects back.

The sound wave undergoes reflection.

The sound wave gets absorbed by the surface.

The sound wave changes its frequency when it reflects back.

The sound wave travels faster when it reflects back.

Which of the following answers describes why this misconception is not possible? Misconception: sound can travel without a medium (such as in space/vacuum).

Sound is more powerful than light waves

What happens when light passes through another material?

It can be absorbed, transmitted, or reflected.

Explain the process of refraction when a light wave passes through a different medium.

Refraction is the bending of light as it passes from one medium to another.

Refraction is the reflection of light as it passes from one medium to another.

Refraction is the absorption of light as it passes from one medium to another.

Refraction is the scattering of light as it passes from one medium to another.

When looking outside the window during a storm, you see a lightning bolt, then hear thunder. Which must be true?

Light travels slower than sound.

Sound travels at the same speed as light.

Which of the following is true regarding light waves?

Faster in a solid than a vacuum

How does reflection determine the color we see?

The color observed is reflected, all other colors are absorbed.

The color observed is absorbed, and all others are reflected

Reflection plays no role in observable color

What colors are reflected, and what colors are absorbed?

Blue light is reflected, and all others are absorbed

Blue light is absorbed, all others are reflected

Yellow and green light are reflected equally, and blue is absorbed.

Some colors are expressed over others due to incomplete dominance

Describe how reflection and absorbtion determine the colors seen?

Different colors are reflected at different points in the image, for example blue light is reflected at "B" and all others are absorbed there.

Different colors are expressed equally to make the image observable, otherwise we would not be able to determine where the color is.

All colors are absorbed in the image making it easily observed

Which of the following is true based on the image?

Orange light is reflected at location "O" and all others are being absorbed

Green light is reflected at location "Y" and all others are absorbed

Blue light is being absorbed at location "V" and all others are reflected

Rank the words based on their ability to allow light to pass from most to none: - Translucent - Opaque - Transparent

Transparent, Translucent, Opaque

Translucent, Opaque, Transparent

Opaque, Transparent, Translucent
