How can you see objects that do not emit light?

You can see objects that do not emit light by reflecting light that falls on them from a light source. These objects reflect light in various ways, depending on their color, texture, and other surface properties, allowing you to see them even if they do not emit their own light.


Do heavy objects accelerates more than light ones?

In the absence of air resistance or other external forces, heavy objects and light objects will accelerate at the same rate due to gravity. This is known as the equivalence principle and was famously demonstrated by Galileo through his experiment with dropping different objects of various weights from the Leaning Tower of Pisa.


What happens if two objects have the same charge What happens if two objects have different charges Can you think of an example of this?

If two objects have the same charge, they will repel each other. If two objects have different charges, they will attract each other. For example, two negatively charged objects will repel each other, while a positively charged object and a negatively charged object will attract each other.


How can light be blocked by other objects?

Light can be blocked by other objects when the material of the object absorbs or scatters the light waves. This absorption or scattering prevents the light waves from passing through the object, causing a shadow to be cast on the other side. The degree to which light is blocked depends on the opacity and thickness of the object.


Is light a controlled variable?

In an experiment, light can be a controlled variable if researchers carefully regulate and maintain the level of light exposure to ensure consistency. This allows them to isolate the effects of other variables being tested in the experiment.

How does a transparent objects get its color?

when light passes through it you can see the other side. When this happens, we say that the object transmits light


What happens when you use shiny objects to reflect light onto the screen?

Some of the light is scattered on its journey to the screen. When the light hits the screen, some of it is reflected from the surface. The rest is refracted through the material of the screen. What happens then depends on screen and what is on its other side.


Does a red shift indicates that objects are moving toward earth true or false?

No. A redshift means that the light has lost energy; one way for this to happens is if galaxies or other objects moveaway from us.


What is illuminate light?

collects light from other objects like the moon.


Are satellites luminous or non-luminous?

Non-luminous. Objects which produce light of their own or give out or emit their own light are called luminous objects. Objects which do not produce light of their own, on the other hand, are called non-luminous objects. Luminous objects are objects like stars, sun and other celestial bodies which give out their own light. Objects surrounding us are not such light emitting objects. Therefore, we are surrounded by non-luminous objects.


Red and blue will absorb the same light?

Red and blue light will not absorb the same light. Red objects reflect red light and absorb other colors, while blue objects reflect blue light and absorb other colors.

What objects in space produce light?

Stars, galaxies, nebulae, and other luminous celestial objects emit light in space. These objects emit different wavelengths and intensities of light based on their composition and physical characteristics.

What happens when starlight hits the planets?

The same thing that happens to any other light; some of it is absorbed by the atmospheres and surfaces of the planets while some is reflected back into space. Starlight is too dim to see objects by it.


What is illumination in terms of light?

when objects get lighted from other source of light it is known as illumination


What experiment is used to show plants need light to photosynthesise?

1.put two plants in a pot full of soil. 2.put one of them in a dark and somber place 3.put the other in light 4.watch what happens
