What happens when we light up a candle?
The candle burns and reacts with oxygen in the air. This chemical reaction causes a flame that emits light.
The candle burns and reacts with carbon dioxide in the air. This chemical reaction causes a flame that emits light.
We require a charged battery, otherwise it will not work.
Which of the following are characteristics of light?
Speed

What happens when light travels? Does it always go on a straight line?
If while traveling, light hits something, it could be absorbed or reflected depending on the material it hits. For example, a mirror would reflect light whereas a black wall would absorb it.
If while traveling, light hits something, it will always be absorbed, no matter the material.
If while traveling, light hits something, it will always be reflected, no matter the material.
Can transparent materials let light pass through them?
No, transparent materials block the light.
Yes, they let light pass through them.
Yes, but light just partially passes through.
What is the phenomenon called when light changes direction as it passes from one medium to another?
Reflection
Refraction
Diffraction
Dispersion
