What else can I help you with?
Is firefly a light source?
yes
Difference between shadow and reflection?
A shadow is the absence of light, a reflection is just that, the reflection of light. So a shadow comes from blocking a light source, a reflection comes from the bouncing of light of one source and on to another
What necessary for reflection to occur?
a light source and a reflector
What is the distance between the light and reflection called?
I'm not entirely sure, but I think it's the angle of reflection.
Is firefly a natural source of light?
Yes - the luminescence is produced by a chemical reaction within the insects body.
How do you know when its a girl firefly or a boy firefly?
You will because a boy firefly light ups while the girl wont light up
How will you demonstrate total internal reflection?
you can demonstrate total internal reflection using a light source and glass gratings.
What will happen when a ray of light is shone at a mirror?
When a ray of light is shone at a mirror, it will be reflected following the law of reflection, where the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. The reflection will produce a mirror image of the object or light source.
Source of error in a reflection experiment?
One common source of error in a reflection experiment is not positioning the mirror or reflective surface perfectly perpendicular to the incident light source, resulting in an inaccurate angle of reflection. This can lead to errors in measuring the angle of reflection and calculating reflection properties like the law of reflection. Regular calibration and ensuring proper alignment can help minimize this error.
Difference between a star and a firefly?
A star is a massive celestial body that emits light and energy through nuclear fusion. A firefly is a small insect that produces bioluminescence to attract mates or prey. The main difference is in their size, nature, and source of light production.
Which example involves the transformation of chemical energy directly into light energy?
The example of a firefly producing light involves the transformation of chemical energy (from its food) directly into light energy through a process known as bioluminescence. This chemical reaction occurs within the firefly's body and results in the emission of light without the need for an external light source.
What is the source of light in firefly?
Firefly gets it's light by what is called as bioluminescence. In this phenomena, you get the light generated by animal, plant or some types of microorganisms. Here you get the light generated without production of the heat. In case of firefly you get the light intermittently. So that the the partner should be spotted, when light is on and the risk of being caught by the predator is reduced, when the light is off.
