Characteristics of Light
Flat Mirrors
Concave Mirrors
Convex Mirrors
Color and Polarization
100
Light, x Rays, microwaves, and radio waves are examples of this type of wave.
What are electromagnetic waves?
100
This is the change in direction of an electromagnetic wave when it encounters a surface.
What is reflection?
100
A concave mirror uses this portion of a sphere as a reflective surface.
What is the inside?
100
A convex mirror uses this portion of a sphere as the reflective surface.
What is the outside of the sphere?
100
The color of an object is dependent on this.
What is what color it reflects?
200
This is the speed of light.
What is 3.00x10^8m/s?
200
Good mirrors can reflect this percentage of light.
What is 90%?
200
This part of a concave mirror is the center of the sphere the mirror is cut from.
What is center of curvature?
200
A convex mirror generates these types of images.
What is real and virtual images?
200
When all additive primary colors combine, this happens.
What is the light becomes white again?
300
Given that an electromagnetic wave has a frequency of 3.0x10^5Hz, this is its wavelength.
What is 1,000m?
300
These two equivalent angles occur when an electromagnetic wave encounters a reflective surface.
What is angle of incidence and angle of reflection?
300
Concave mirrors always generate this type of image.
What is a real image?
300
A convex mirror has the center of curvature and focal point located here.
What is behind the mirror?
300
This occurs when not all light can move through a lens.
What is polarization?
400
Given that an electromagnetic wave has a wavelength of 2,000m, this is its frequency.
What is 1.5x10^5Hz?
400
Ray diagrams are a useful tool for doing this.
What is predicting image location?
400
Given that an object is 10.0cm from the surface of a concave mirror with a radius of curvature of 30.0cm, this is the image distance.
What is 30.0cm?
400
Given that a convex mirror has a focal length of -10.0cm, and the image appears at -2.00cm, this is the object distance.
What is 2.50cm?
400
These colors are pigments.
What is subtractive primary colors?
500
Given that an electromagnetic wave has a wavelength of 4,780m, this is its frequency.
What is 6.28x10^5Hz?
500
This type of image appears behind the mirror.
What is a virtual image?
500
Given that an object is 10.0cm away from a mirror, but its image appears 5.00cm away from the mirror, this is the magnification of the mirror.
What is 1/2?
500
If a convex mirror reflects a 2.00cm object at a height of 1.00cm, this is the magnification of the mirror.
What is 1/2?
500
These two colors reform white light when combined together.
What is complementary?
