Light waves carry [ ] from one place to another.
(a)
Can light cause a genetic material to be damaged?
Yes. The genetic material can take in energy from the light.
Yes. The light pulled out energy from the genetic material.
No. Light can only heat up materials.
No. Light is not a physical thing so it cannot change physical things.
What happens to energy when light changes a material?
If light changes a material, the energy was absorbed.
If light changes a material, the energy becomes warm.
If light changes a material, the energy is removed.
Light cannot change a material.
What happens to energy when light does not change a material?
If light does not change a material, the energy was not absorbed.
If light does not change a material, the light does not have energy.
If light does not change a material, the energy is removed.
Light cannot change a material.
Can light cause a plant to increase kinetic energy?
Yes. The plant can take in energy from the light.
Yes. The light pulled out energy from the plant.
No. Light can only heat up materials.
No. Light is not a physical thing so it cannot change physical things.
Can light cause a solar panel to get warm?
Yes. The solar panel can take in energy from the light.
Yes. The light pulled out energy from the solar panel
No. Light can only damage materials.
No. Light is not a physical thing so it cannot change physical things.
Why does light from the sun give us cancer when light from our flashlight does not?
Because our genetic material can take in energy from the sun, but not the flashlight.
Because sunlight pulls energy out from our genetic materials and the flashlight does not.
Because the sun gives off a type of light that carries energy, and light from the flashlight does not.
Because light from the sun carries heating molecules, and light for the flashlight does not.
When a material absorbs light, energy is (a) .
When a material transmits light, energy is (b) .
When a material reflects light, energy is (c) .
The same type of light can be brighter if it has a different (a) . If the (b) is different, it is a different type of light.
Which statement best describes this image?
Different types of waves have different wavelengths.
Different types of waves have different amplitude.
All waves have the same amplitude and wavelength.
Santiago’s teacher showed him a kind of cloth that changes color if it is placed out in the sun, but does not change color if it is placed under a desk lamp. Why will light from the sun change the color of the cloth when the light from the desk lamp does not?
Because light from the sun carries colored molecules, and light from the desk lamp does not.
Because light from the sun pulls energy out of the cloth, and light from the desk lamp does not.
Because the sun gives off a type of light that carries energy, and light from the desk lamp does not.
Because the cloth can take in energy from the light from the sun but not from the light from the desk lamp.
What type of scientist studies light and how it interacts with materials?!
A chemist
A physiologist
A spectroscopist
A scientologist
In Ms. Bull's class, we are trying to figure out why the Skin Cancer rate in Australia is so high. We disproved the Claim (the answer), which states that the cancer rate in Australia is high because Australia gets a lot of sun.
Why did we disprove this Claim? Select ALL answers that apply.
(Hint hint: There's more than 1 answer)
Australia gets the same amount of sunlight as Brazil per year, but the skin cancer rate in Australia is higher than Brazil.
Australia gets less sunlight than Northern Africa (Egypt) per year, but the skin cancer rate in Australia is higher than Egypt.
Australia gets the same amount of sunlight as Brazil per year, but the skin cancer rate in Australia is lower than Brazil.
Australia gets more sunlight than Northern Africa (Egypt) per year, but the skin cancer rate in Australia is lower than Egypt.
Light carries energy that causes materials to change.
True
False
In Australia,
it's estimated that for every 200,000 people, over 220 of those people will develop Skin Cancer.
it's estimated that for every 100,000 people, 100-130 of those people will develop Skin Cancer.
it's estimated that for every 200,000 people, 100-130 of those people will develop Skin Cancer.
it's estimated that for every 100,000 people, over 220 of those people will develop Skin Cancer.
Which country has the highest rate of skin cancer in the world?
Brazil
Australia
Japan
Egypt
If a car sits out in the sun every day for a long time, can light from the sun damage the car’s paint?
Yes. The paint can take in energy from the light, causing it to be damaged.
No. Light can only change things by warming them up, so it cannot damage the car's paint.
No. Light is not a physical thing, so it cannot change physical things like paint.
Yes. Light from the sun can pull energy out of the paint, causing it to be damaged.
