They glow in the dark because luminous things have a quality that makes them glow. For instance, a firefly is luminous.
Self-luminous objects.
Luminous objects.
Luminous objects are sources that emit light, while illuminated objects are those that reflect or scatter light from a different source.
i think luminous means when something gives off light and non-luminous means when something does not give off light.
It's often possible to see non-luminous objects if you illuminate them with a source of light, such as a flashlight, a candle, or a drop of golden sunshine. No object absorbs all of the light that falls on it, so some light is always reflected from it, and some of that reflected light finds its way to your eye. Once any of the light falling on the object has reflected from it, it's very much as if the object were self-luminous.
diffuse reflection
You are able to see non-luminous objects because light has undergone reflection or scattering off those objects, allowing the light to reach your eyes and be interpreted by your brain as visual imagery.
We can see non-luminous objects because the light reflect off the object and into our eyes that's why at night you can only see a faint out line of the objects around you
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.
Luminous objects emit their own light due to chemical reactions or heat. When this light enters our eyes, it stimulates the cells in our retinas, allowing us to see the object.
Luminous.
Luminous - bodies are objects which exhibit their own light.EXAMPLE:-SUNnon-luminous bodies are objects that reflect light from luminous bodiesEXAMPLE:-moonLuminous bodies are insects that give a light, such as the glow worm. Non luminous bodies do not glow o their own. it can also refer to things in space; such as planets, moons and stars
Luminous objects are those that emit their own light, such as stars, the sun, and certain artificial light sources like lamps and LEDs. In contrast, non-luminous objects do not produce light but can reflect it, such as the moon or a painted wall. The term "luminous" comes from the Latin word "luminosus," meaning "full of light."
Luminous objects are those which can produce or give out light of their own, while non-luminous objects cannot produce or give out their own light. Some examples of luminous objects would be the sun, stars, fireflies, glowworms and some deep sea fish Some examples of non-luminous objects would be the planets Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars,Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and also Moons.
The Sun and a lighted candle are luminous.
Yes, otherwise you wouldn't be able to see it.
What are some man-made luminous objects? Someone please answer! Anonymous
