This is the type of wave that CAN move through a vacuum.
What are light waves?
An object that gives off its own light.
What is a luminous object?
The part of the eye that connects to the brain.
What is the optic nerve?
The law that explains how light "bends".
What is the Law of Refraction?
White light is a mixture of all the colors of this.
What is a rainbow?
This wave travels through the air at 335 meters per second.
What are sound waves?
The moon is an example of this type of object.
What is an illuminated object?
The "window of the eye".
What is the cornea?
The law that states, "the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection".
What is the Law of Reflection?
This is NOT a color that is absorbed by a basketball.

What is the speed of light?
An orange lets no light pass through it because it is this.
What is opaque?

What is "diffuse" or "scatter"?
The part of the eye that we use to change focus.
What is the lens?
This happens when light moves at an angle from a more-dense medium to a less-dense medium.
What is "the light bends away from the normal"?
All of the colors exist on this (it is a scale from a little to a lot and everywhere in between).
What is the color spectrum?
The reason we see lightning before we hear thunder.
What is "light travels faster than sound"?
What is the sun?
This is the dark part of the eye that absorbs a lot of light.
What is the pupil?
The direction a light bends when it moves straight on from one medium to another.
What is no direction? (no refraction)
The sky is blue because these scatter the light in the sky.
What are air molecules?
