light
Where does our Natural source of light come from?
The sun
What happens when destructive interference occurs?
The wave disappears/ destructs
Name one iridescent thing (besides a soap bubble or the Chromapaint.)
anything iridescent
What are the primary colors?
Red, Yellow, Blue
What is Absorption?
the process of taking something into another substance
How does the light from the sun travel?
In waves
What are the 2 types of interference?
Constructive and Destructive
What is iridescence?
when the color appears to change based on the angle you look at it.
What color has the shortest wavelength?
What is Reflection?
the throwing back by a body or surface of light, heat, or sound without absorbing it.
Name 2 types of light
visible light, infrared, ultraviolet, radio waves, microwaves, X-rays, and gamma rays.
What is Constructive interference?
Constructive interference is when 2 waves get reflected and their troughs and crests align with the other waves troughs and crests
What is a soap bubble? (The layers of it)
A soap bubble is a thin layer of water between 2 layers of air.
Do plants have pigment?
Yes
What travels faster, Light or sound?
Light
What type of light does the sun give off?
UV or Ultraviolet
What is Destructive interference
Destructive interference happens when the waves crest aligns with the other waves trough
what type of interference causes iridescence?
Constructive
How does pigment get its color?
by absorbing certain wavelengths of light and reflecting others
What type of wave does light travel in? (Transverse or Longitudinal)
Transverse
What solar system is the sun in?
Milky way
How does interference happen?
Interference happens when waves being reflected interfere with different waves, either crest to crest or trough to crest.
What is a soap bubble made out of?
A soap bubble is a thin layer of water between 2 layers of air.
What type of pigment does Chromapaint have?
Interference pigment
What is refraction?
the change in the direction of a wave passing from one medium to another
