Spectrum
This property of light demonstrates that it can behave both as a particle and as a wave.
What is wave-particle duality
Lenses do this to light
What is refract
This type of telescope uses a curved mirror to gather and focus light.
What is a reflecting telescope
This part of the EM spectrum allows doctors to see your bones!
What are X-rays
These are the materials that allow nearly all light to pass through so that objects on the other side can be seen clearly.
What is transparent
The name for the large convex lens that light first enters through on a refracting telescope.
What is the objective lens
The name of the device that let's you see the spectrum of light emitted by an object emitting light. (We used them for the emission tubes)
What is a spectroscope
Rays that produce heat!
What is infrared rays
The three secondary colours of light
What is yellow, cyan and magenta
Convex lenses are used to treat this type of vision issue
What is farsightedness
This part of the human eye adjusts its shape to focus light on the retina, functioning similarly to the lenses in a refracting telescope.
What is the lens
This simple optical device, often made of a small hole in a material, projects an inverted image of the outside scene onto the opposite inner surface.
What is a pinhole camera
Waves used in communication and heating up food
What is microwaves
Concave lenses always form this kind of image
What are virtual images
Known for capturing deep space images with a large mirror that collects infrared light, this telescope launched in 2021 aims to explore the universe's early galaxies.
What is the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST)
This optical illusion occurs when light bends as it passes through different temperatures of air, sometimes seen on hot roads.
What is a mirage
Colors of visible light
What is red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet
It took this long for the JWST to generate the "Deep Field" image.
What is 19 hours
Named after the constellation that it is found in, this galaxy is currently on a collision course with our galaxy the Milky Way.
What is the Andromeda Galaxy
