Sideward emission of light by illuminated molecules or particles is called...

scattering 

200

TRUE or False. You must touch an object in order to apply force to it.

false. There are forces that do not require the objects to touch in order to act on them, these are called non-contact forces. ex. magnetic forces.

Lateral magnification

400

What does the principle of reversibility says?


The path of a light ray subjected to reflection or refraction is traced in reverse by any ray coming along the path in the opposite direction
