Can light be reflected off water?
Yes. Everything you see is the light reflecting off of the object you see. So when you see yourself in water that the light bouncing off your face onto the water and back to your eyes.
When you see your inage in a mirror are bouncing back from the surface of the mirror. This is what allows you to see your reflection?
The only way you can see yourself in a mirror is when there is light present. The ray of light hits the surface of the mirror and it reflects in your eyes. Which allows you to see you!
How does reflective light allow us to see an object?
same way normal light does. it's just normal light bouncing off a reflective surface and onto another surface
What causes darkness and light?
This is a quantum physics question. Basic chemistry tells us that matter generally comes in the form of a particle and energy called a photon that comes in the form of a wave. Photons, however, are an extremely unique form of energy because they exhibit qualities of a particle AND a wave. Darkness is a void of light particles reflecting (bouncing) off of surfaces directly into your pupil (thus rendering your eyes useless in the dark) - and is also relative to the animal depending on the rod/cone cells (light receptors) in their eyes (cats for example can see the whole house in the dark with just the oven clock light). Atomically it is when there are almost no photons bouncing off of surfaces. This is also how color works. The color that you see is actually absorbing every other color but the color that it reflects. Black and white, when it comes to light, are not colors. White is composed of every color, while black reflects no color.
How do you know that light is a particle?
particles can collide with each other and bounce off other particles. witch proves they are there. why do you think you can see what you see.
What property of light is responsible for our ability to see words on a page due to light bouncing off them?
Contrast.
How do we see images in a mirror?
Light 'bouncing' off the subject is reflected back by the mirror.
Can light be reflected off water?
Yes. Everything you see is the light reflecting off of the object you see. So when you see yourself in water that the light bouncing off your face onto the water and back to your eyes.
Is beam of light is visible or invisible as it passes through a solution?
transparency is a physical property of matter, and depends entirely on the which element you are taking about.
Why can light travel trough space?
Because light is a particle that is fired of from a star, that particle travels many ages to go through space to reach your eyes when you see it

What give us light?
Light is given by a subatomic particle called a photon. All types of light are transferred by this from gamma rays to microwaves. Although It is called a particle from the double slit experiment we can see that the photon can act like particle and a wave
What molecule is responsible for sight?
This depends, If you speaking in terms of the particle which carries "light" which gives us the ability to see than this particle is known as the 'photon'. This particle is massless and travels at the speed of light, 3x108 ms-1
Is light both a wave and a particle.?
everything is both a wave and a particle. consider a Baseball, we see it as only a particle because its wavelength is much too small to observe.
How do you see light energy?
a particle of light falls on a cell in the back of your eye and triggers a chemical reaction. The more energy that particle of light has, the more nerves it sets off, and the brighter it looks. That is how we see it. That cell sends a message down the optic nerve to the back of your brain. That lets you see.

How do we see?
With our eyesYou see by light bouncing off object and into your eyes is progected on your retina upside-down and your brain flips it up the right way
