What else can I help you with?
Light travels in sraight lines that we call?
Light travels in straight lines that we call rays.
What do you call the lines that light travels in?
rays.
Why is light called a ray?
light is called a ray because light travels in straight lines
What is visible or invisible form of energy that travels by waves in straight lines?
Light is a visible form of energy that travels in straight lines. It can also appear invisible, such as with ultraviolet or infrared light.
The light from Polaris travels through space in the form of?
Light travels as light energy. Light is a type of electromagnetic wave.
What demonstrates that light travels in straight lines?
One way to demonstrate that light travels in straight lines is by observing shadows. When an object blocks light, it creates a shadow that has a well-defined edge, showing that light travels in straight paths. Another way is by using a pinhole camera, where light passes through a small hole and creates an inverted image on a screen, also indicating that light travels in straight lines.
When light travels in straight lines can it be reflected or refracted?
Yes, when light travels in straight lines, it can be reflected off surfaces or refracted when passing through different mediums with varying densities. Reflection occurs when light bounces off a surface, while refraction happens when light changes direction as it travels from one medium to another.
What indicates that light travels in straight lines?
Light travels in straight lines because it does not exhibit visible diffraction or interference in everyday scenarios. When light encounters a boundary between two mediums with different refractive indices, it refracts but still travels in a straight line within each medium. This behavior is explained by the wave theory of light.
Why do light rays travel in straight lines?
Light rays travel in straight lines due to the principle of the shortest path, known as Fermat's principle. Light travels along the path that minimizes the time it takes to travel from one point to another. This results in light rays following straight lines in a uniform medium.
The light from Polaris travels through space in what form of energy?
Light travels as light energy. Light is a type of electromagnetic wave.
What does light travel as?
Light travels in straight lines. Light goes very very fast. About 300,000 km per second. Ima chargin' muh lazers. It travels as electromagnetic waves.
What do you call the straight path that light travels?
light travels in straight paths called rays
