Hello everyone, this is Kori and today we are going to continue talking about heat and light.
00:00:00
We will be focusing on the basic laws of light. Remember, light is radiation we can see with our
00:00:07
eyes. We need light to see objects and determine their shape, size, and color. Reflection is
00:00:18
one of the basic laws of light. Reflection occurs when light energy
00:00:33
bounces off a surface and changes direction. Let's discuss how a mirror
00:00:43
reflects light. So light travels in a straight line from the object to the
00:00:53
mirror. The mirror reflects the light causing it to change direction. Now the
00:01:06
boy can see the reflection of the object in the mirror. So light energy hits a
00:01:21
mirror. The light energy is reflected and the boy sees a reflection in the mirror.
00:01:32
Reflection can be specular or diffuse.
00:01:39
Specular reflection is when light rays are reflected off a surface in one direction.
00:01:50
Mirrors produce specular reflection.
00:02:01
Diffuse reflection occurs when a surface reflects light rays in lots of directions.
00:02:06
This happens when a surface is rough. This causes the light to reflect at different angles. A surface
00:02:14
may look smooth to us, but actually be rough at a microscopic level. So you may need a microscope
00:02:28
to see that the surface is rough. Refraction. Refraction occurs when light
00:02:38
passes through some transparent substances and the light energy changes
00:02:54
direction slightly. Remember, transparent substances are substances that allow all
00:03:03
all light to pass through. Let's look at how water causes refraction. The water in this cup
00:03:13
changes the direction of the light energy that passes through it. If we look closely
00:03:29
at the straw, you can see that the straw appears to be bent. This is because water is
00:03:39
refracting the light. White light. White light is made up of all the colors combined together.
00:03:48
red, orange, yellow, green, blue, violet. We can divide white light into colors by refraction
00:04:08
because each colored light travels at a specific wavelength. So white light is made up of all of
00:04:23
colors, but we can divide these colors because the light travels at different speeds. They
00:04:34
travel at different wavelengths. Red has the longest wavelength and violet has the shortest
00:04:43
wavelength. The wavelengths are different for each color, so we can separate them.
00:04:52
Okay, that's all for now. I hope you can continue to look on the bright side. Goodbye!
