The Fascinating Journey of Light and Its Properties

The video tutorial introduces the properties of light, including its speed in a vacuum and how it travels in straight lines unless obstructed. It explains how light interacts with opaque, transparent, and translucent materials, and how it behaves in different mediums, such as air, water, and glass. The tutorial also covers the reflection of light, including the concepts of angle of incidence and reflection, and the differences between specular and diffuse reflection.

What is the approximate speed of light in a vacuum?

• 3 x 10^10 meters per second
