What is a piece of glass that separates the visible wavelengths of light?
A prism is a piece of glass that separates the visible wavelengths of light by refracting, or bending, different colors of light at different angles as they pass through the prism. This causes the colors to spread out, creating a rainbow effect.
Piece of coloured plastic that only lets some colours of light through?
A filter. It selectively absorbs or transmits certain wavelengths of light, allowing only specific colors to pass through while blocking others. These filters are commonly used in photography, lighting, and optics to manipulate the colors of light.
What is Small piece of rock that falls to earth?
meteorite.
What is supposed to happen if you put a water thermometer in the sun with a piece of cloth covering it?
try it.
What is a damp cloth?
A damp cloth is a cloth that has been slightly wetted with water, but not excessively soaked. It is often used for cleaning surfaces or wiping down objects as it can help remove dirt, dust, or spills without leaving excess moisture behind.
If white light falls upon a piece of blue cloth the cloth absorbs?
the blue cloth absorbs all of the colors except for blue, and reflects blue, that is why its blue
A piece of cloth appears red under red light green under green light and blue under blue light What color is the cloth Explain why it cannot be any other color?
The cloth would be wite because if it were any other color the colored light would mix with the color of the cloth and make a different color.
What is a piece of glass that is used to split light into colors?
A prism is a piece of glass that can split light into its different colors through refraction.
Why are the colors of the rainbow those colors?
This is the same as if you had a light to a piece of glass..... the light is bended.
What is a piece of glass that refracts light?
A prism is a piece of glass that refracts light by separating it into its component colors.
Why do clothes get darker when they get wet?
Cloth normally reflects some light. Remember that materials absorb "not colors" and they reflect "colors" that they are. Make sense? If something is blue, it reflects blue light and absorbs the rest (the "not colors"). Let's jump. Take a piece of cloth that is absorbing some light and reflecting other light. Along comes water. Water is basically transparent to light. But it does refract, or "bend" light, do a degree. When cloth is wet, some of the light that otherwise might be reflected is scattered into the cloth, and the cloth is given a "second chance" to absorb more of the light - which it does. More light absorbed equates to darker color or appearance. Wet cloth absorbs more light because of the effects of the water. Water scatters some of the light, and the cloth absorbs more of that light than it would if it wasn't wet.
What colors are reflected by a white piece of paper?
A white piece of paper reflects all colors of visible light equally, which is why we perceive it as white. It does not absorb any specific colors, enabling it to reflect a full spectrum of light.
Why does a white piece of paper appear white in white light red in red light blue in blue light and so on?
White surface reflects all wavelengths of visible light spectrum (ie. white color is a mixture of all the other colors). If the light that falls on the surface has one specific wavelength, only that wavelength occurs in the light reflected.
What is a triangle shaped piece of glass that bends light?
A prism is a triangle-shaped piece of glass that is able to bend light by refracting and dispersing the light into its component colors.
Why can you see your reflection in a spoon but not in a piece of cloth?
You can see your reflection in a spoon because it has a smooth and shiny surface that can reflect light rays. A piece of cloth has a rough and absorbent surface that scatters the light instead of reflecting it, making it impossible to see a clear reflection.
Why you can see your reflection in a spoon but not in a piece of cloth?
A spoon has a smooth, flat surface that acts like a mirror, reflecting light rays back towards you. In contrast, a piece of cloth has a rough, uneven surface that scatters light in multiple directions, preventing a clear reflection.
What do you call a piece of cloth?
A small piece of cloth is usually called a patch. A small piece of cloth could also be called a rag or a washcloth.
