What can be used to represent light rays?
On a diagram that include light rays, lines with arrows on them to represent the direction of the light rays could be used. Hope that answers your question.
What is light rays obey the law of reflection which states that?
what is the parallel light rays reflect off each mirror below looks like with a ruler
Refraction makes a ruler in a cup of warter look broken?
Refraction makes a ruler in a cup of water look broken because of the light rays bend when they move from water to air or air to water...
Are UV light and UV rays the same thing?
Yes, UV light and UV rays are the same thing, light emit "rays."
What do lenses do to light rays?
They make the light rays converge to a point. Parallel rays converge at the focal point of the lens

How do solar outdoor lights work?
Solar lights work by gathering light rays from the sun and converting the rays into electrical currents using semiconductors. Then as it gets dark the light illuminates the night. Then as daylight breaks the light recharges with the UV rays from sunlight.

Which scientist carried out experiments with light rays?
Newton did experiments using prisms to show that white light contained all colours of light.
When was Rays of Light created?
Rays of Light was created in 1999.
The of light rays is caused by glass bending light rays?
no, the light rays are caused due to reflection,transmission and absorption of light. Index of refraction.
Why can you see a ruler bend in water?
It is because of the way water deflects the light. The image perceived by the retina is a pictorial representation of a reflection of light. Water and air are different mediums through which the electromagnetic light travels through.
Which types of electromagnetic radiation can be detected using telescopes on Earth?
They can detect radio waves, infrared radiation, ultraviolet radiation, x-rays, and gamma rays.
Are X-rays visible light?
