How do light waves behave? That was a question students were investigating. Two pieces of construction paper, one white and one black, were set up like you see here. With a flashlight, Mr. Mann directed a beam of light at each piece of paper. How did the light behave after hitting each surface?ResponsesA White paper reflects all incoming waves, while black absorbs all incoming waves.White paper reflects all incoming waves, while black absorbs all incoming waves.B The white paper absorbs and transmits light waves, while the black paper absorbs all light waves.The white paper absorbs and transmits light waves, while the black paper absorbs all light waves.C The white paper is transparent and light passes through; the black paper is opaque and the light was absorbed.The white paper is transparent and light passes through; the black paper is opaque and the light was absorbed.D The white paper is translucent and some light is reflected and some is absorbed. All of the light is absorbed by the black paper.The white paper is translucent and some light is reflected and some is absorbed. All of the light is absorbed by the black paper.

What happens to a light beam when it passes through a translucent material such as waxed paper?*1 pointMost of the light passes throughLight is reflected in its incident pathMost of the light is absorbed and very little is reflectedLight is not allowed to pass through

how is the light reflected by a mirror different to the light reflected by a piece of paper

Curious Carl and his lab partner were trying to answer the question: "What is white light?" To do this, Carl directed a beam of light through a glass _________ that had been placed on a piece of white paper. As the beam of light came out the opposite side, a rainbow of colors was produced on the white paper.ResponsesA prismprismB microscopemicroscopeC convex lensconvex lensD color filter

Light and sound may seem familiar, but they can be very puzzling.Select which of the following statements you think are true.Waves carry material from one place to anotherWhite light is a mixture of light of different coloursLight bounces off mirrors but not other objects, like trees and concreteEvery object we see produces its own lightSound can't travel through outer spaceSound can't be absorbed by materialsRadio waves are a type of sound
