How do different materials affect light and sound waves?
Light slows as it enters material with a higher density whereas sound waves speed up in materials of higher density. Light bends towards the "normal" as it passes from a less dense medium to a higher density medium ie air into glass. Both sound and light can be reflected from surfaces.
Light waves are classified as what waves?
Optical light waves are "Electromagnetic" waves. The colour seen is dependent on the wavelength of the light. Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves where the oscillation is 90 degrees to the direction of travel (unlike sound waves which are longitudinal).
Where do light waves originate?
Light waves originate from a light source, such as the sun, a light bulb, or a laser. When an object absorbs energy, it can emit photons, which are the elementary particles of light that travel as electromagnetic waves.
Does the kaliedoscope use reflection or refraction?
A kaleidoscope uses reflection of light to create its colorful patterns. The light reflects off the mirrors inside the kaleidoscope, creating multiple reflections that form intricate and symmetrical designs.
Light and sound waves have many similar properties however light waves are what while sound waves are what?
Light waves are eletromagnetic waves and sound waves are mechanical waves. Additionally, a light wave is a transverse wave that does not require a medium through which to travel. Sound waves, on the other hand, are longitudinal waves where the source transfers the mechanical energy of the sound wave into the medium so it can travel.
What does light do in a kaleidoscope?
In a kaleidoscope, light is used to make make the colors and shapes inside visible.
Does the color of a laser affect the velocity of the light waves projected by the laser?
does the color of a lease affect the velocity of the light waves projected by the laser?
How do light waves affect matter?
light waves travel through a matter, such as air water and others
How does a kaleidoscope use light?
its doesnt!!!
How are light rays be having in the kaleidoscope to create the image?
Light rays entering the kaleidoscope reflect off the interior surfaces of the kaleidoscope's multiple mirrors, creating reflections of the objects at the other end. The reflections combine to form intricate and symmetrical patterns within the kaleidoscope's viewing chamber. These patterns change as the kaleidoscope is rotated or shaken.
Can light waves always travel in staight lines?
You mean "can light waves travel in nonstraight lines?"? Yes, if they are diffracted or pass through different materials. Gravity can also affect light waves and curve them.
What principle of light does the kaleidoscope use?
The kaleidoscope uses the principle of multiple reflections to create symmetrical and colorful patterns. When light enters the kaleidoscope, it bounces off multiple mirrors, creating a series of reflections that produce intricate and changing designs.
What does not affect matter as they travel through it.?
Electromagnetic waves do not affect matter as they travel through it. This includes light waves and radio waves, which can pass through materials without interacting with the particles that make up the material.
How do physics waves affect color?
There are many types of waves covered by physics. Only electromagnetic waves in the visible light band have the property that we call "color".
Does light affect sound?
In general, light does not affect sound. Sound waves and light waves are different forms of energy that usually do not influence each other directly. However, extreme cases like laser-induced sound or photoacoustic effects can show interactions between light and sound.
What type of reflection does a kaleidoscope use?
A kaleidoscope typically uses multiple reflections, which could be a combination of regular and irregular reflections. These reflections create intricate patterns by bouncing light within the kaleidoscope's tube and mirrors.
What is the instrument which changes the direction of light using plane mirrors?
kaleidoscope?????
