A virtual image is an image that appears to be in a location where light does not really reach.

• True

• False

Plane mirrors produce only real images.

• True

• False

If the difference in elevations in a surface are small (less than about one-eighth the wavelength of the light that falls on it), the surface is considered polished.

• True

• False

The fraction of sound energy reflected from a surface is less when the surface is rigid and smooth, and more when the surface is soft and irregular.

• True

• False

At each point along a wave front, the wave is moving parallel to the wave front.

• True

• False

Sound waves are refracted when part of the wave front travels at different speeds.

• True

• False

The wave front of light from the sun looks like straight lines because the source of light is so far away.

• True

• False

Because of refraction, we see the sun for several minutes after sunset.

• True

• False

Since the natural frequency of most transparent materials is in the ultraviolet part of the spectrum, visible light of higher frequencies travels more slowly than light of lower frequencies.

• True

• False
