What is the name for a beam of light used to represent a light path?
Incident light ray
What is the difference between a ray of light and a beam of light?
A light beam or beam of light is a narrow cone of light energy radiating from a small source. In optics, a ray is an idealized narrow beam of light.
Describe how absorption and scattering can affect a beam of light?
How absorption and scattering can affect a beam of light is if the beam of light is farther away from an object, the light would be dimmer. But, if the beam of light was closer to the object, then the light would appear brighter.
When the arrival of a beam of light at a surface?
when arrival of a beam of light at a surface
What is the name for a beam of light which can cut through metal in a few hundredths of a second?
A laser.
What is another name for a light?
A flicker, a beam, a ray.
Name a type of beam you wouldn't want to balance on?
Light/Sun Beam Laser Beam Roof Beam Jim Beam
What is another name for the triple beam balance?
triple beam balance
What is another name for boat width?

What is the name for a beam of light used to represent a light path?

Can you break a infrared beam with another infrared beam or another light source?
In general, no. You may be able to exploit non-linear properties of the medium through which light is shining, but you cannot stop light using just other light.
Can light refract if it hits another strong beam of light?
No!! Light beams of photons do not interfere with one another except in crystals as phonons.
When light travels from one medium into another the light beam can be bent. This refers to?
This is also known as "refraction".
What is beam spreading?
Beam spreading is when the sun's rays (or angles) spread out because the earth is in it's revolution and rotation. However this is the definition of beam spreading relating light and the amount of light received to earth, not relevant to another meaning. So basically beam spreading is when the sun's light spreads on earth.
What is convergent beam?
a type of light, from a beam of light
