1 00:00:01,199 --> 00:00:11,890 Effects of light 2 00:00:11,890 --> 00:00:14,669 Reflection 3 00:00:14,669 --> 00:00:22,870 Reflection happens when light hits an object and bounces back. 4 00:00:24,190 --> 00:00:31,329 When light hits a smooth surface, the rays of light reflect in the same direction. 5 00:00:31,329 --> 00:00:40,090 When it hits a raw surface, the rays of light will fluctuate in different directions. 6 00:00:41,570 --> 00:00:42,210 Refraction 7 00:00:42,210 --> 00:00:52,630 Refraction happens when light changes speed and direction as it passes from one substance to another. 8 00:00:52,630 --> 00:00:58,770 The substance through which light travels is called medium. 9 00:00:58,770 --> 00:01:04,370 Some mediums cause for more refraction than others. 10 00:01:05,790 --> 00:01:11,129 For example, water slows the speed of light more than air does. 11 00:01:12,530 --> 00:01:18,189 Lenses are pieces of curved glass or plastic that refract light. 12 00:01:20,409 --> 00:01:27,930 Lenses can make objects look bigger or smaller depending on the shape of the lens 13 00:01:27,930 --> 00:01:30,950 and on the way they refract light. 14 00:01:32,829 --> 00:01:34,450 Characteristics of light 15 00:01:34,450 --> 00:01:40,010 Light have seven colors, like the rainbow. 16 00:01:40,569 --> 00:01:46,450 Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. 17 00:01:47,549 --> 00:01:49,329 By Gonzalo Quintoa
