Which of the following properties of sound is the most similar to the brightness of light?
The pitch of sound is most similar to the brightness of light. Just like brightness represents the intensity of light, pitch represents the perceived frequency of sound. A higher pitch corresponds to a higher frequency, similar to how brighter light appears more intense.
What happens when the objects in the way of the waves move?
When objects in the way of waves move, the waves can be blocked or absorbed by the objects. This can cause the waves to change direction, scatter, or reflect off the moving objects. The movement of the objects can also affect the amplitude and wavelength of the waves.
Do most objects give off their own light?
No, most objects do not give off their own light. Objects either reflect light from a light source or emit light when they are heated to a high temperature.
What is it called when objects reflect light?
It is called reflection. When objects reflect light, the light bounces off the surface of the object and into our eyes, allowing us to see the object.
Light is to reflect as sound is to what?
Sound is to echo. Just like light bounces off surfaces to reflect, sound waves can bounce off surfaces and repeat in an echo.

Do sound waves bounce off objects?
Yes, sound waves can bounce off objects. This phenomenon is known as reflection. When sound waves encounter an object, they can be reflected off its surface and change direction. This is similar to how light waves bounce off mirrors.
Why does light reflect off an object?
Light reflects off an object because of the interaction between the incoming light waves and the surface of the object. The smooth surface of an object allows light waves to bounce off in a predictable manner, following the law of reflection. This reflection is what allows us to see objects, as the light that reflects off them enters our eyes.
Why are you unable to see non- luminous objects in a dark box?
Because light can't directly reach the objects, or reflect well off the inside walls of the box. So not enough light bounces off the walls, then bounces off the objects, and then goes to your eyes.
Does mirrors reflect sound?
No, mirrors do not reflect sound. Mirrors reflect light waves, but sound waves require a medium, such as air or water, to travel through. Sound waves do not bounce off mirrors as they are not capable of reflecting sound.
What do you understand by the term reflection of light . Name two objects which can reflect light?
Reflection of light is the phenomenon where light rays bounce off a surface after striking it. A mirror and a smooth metal surface are two examples of objects that can reflect light.
Why can you see a cup even though it does not give off light?
Objects that don't give off light - like a cup - reflect incoming light.
Do shiny things reflect light?
Yes, shiny objects reflect light because they have a smooth surface that allows light to bounce off without being absorbed. This reflection gives shiny objects their glossy appearance.
