What kind of Lights in which the waves vibrate in only one direction?
Polarized light consists of waves that vibrate in only one direction. This type of light is created by filtering out light waves that aren't aligned in the desired direction, leaving only waves vibrating parallel or perpendicular to a specific axis. Polarized light is commonly used in applications like sunglasses, 3D glasses, and liquid crystal displays.
Light waves that vibrate in only one plane are called what?
Light waves that vibrate in only one plane are called polarized light. This means that the electric field of the light wave oscillates in a single direction. Polarized light can be achieved through polarization filters or by reflecting light off certain surfaces.
What is light that vibrates only in one direction?
Polarized light is a type of light in which the electromagnetic waves vibrate in a single plane. This means that all the waves are oriented in the same direction, leading to a specific polarization state.
What are waves that travel through space at the speed of light called?
All electromagnetic waves travel through space at the "speed of light". Light is one form of electromagnetic waves.
Do light waves travel in straight paths called rays?
google it lazy bum. No, light waves are just that-- waves. The color of the wave is determined by it's frequency- normal light is white because it is low frequency. The frequency is how fast the light "waves". But a laser pointer has red light, which has a higher frequency, and therefore is only one color. Hope this helps!

How are waves and light similar?
Light is one form of waves.
Do polarized light consists of waves that vibrate in one direction only?
No, it isn't one direction, otherwise there would not have been vibration at all! In normal light, the electric field vibrates in planes which are perpendicular to the direction that the wave is moving. In polarised light, the electric field vibrates in only one plane which is perpendicular to the direction that the wave is moving.. (3 dimension has been considered in the answer; this is why plane(s) have been used in the answer)

Can waves given off by electric power lines be seen?
There is only one type of wave that humans can see. Visible light. If the wave given off by the electric power line is visible light, then yes. If it is any other type of wave than it is not possible to see.

What is incoherent light?
light waves that are out of phase with one another
What property of light waves can be observed as light waves pass from one medium to another and change speed?
diffraction

What is the difference between infared waves and red light waves?
Laser is concentrated light like a reflector only parallell, infrared light is a part of the light spectrum (like blue, red, ultraviolet...).The comparison in question is similar to comparing apples to oranges as the first is the arrangement of rays (similar to bulb light vs. focused reflector) and the latter is the wawelength (red light vs. blue light).
What is The bending of light waves as they travel from one surface to another?
Refraction is the bending of light waves as they travel from one transparent medium to another, such as air to water or glass. This change in the speed of light causes the light waves to change direction at the surface between the two media.
