F
Sideward emission of light by illuminated molecules or particles is called...
scattering
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.
What is the reality of mixing two subtractive primary pigments? All three?
Primary colors/ black

Wich law of reflection states that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection?
What is a meteríal that is resistant to the transmission of light waves?
Optical density
When iluminated by an overhead light source, the lens displays a pattern of alternating light and dark rings called..
Newtons rings or fringes
What does a manometer measures

How does the ratio "hı/ho" is called?
Lateral magnification
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
When a surface has no irregularities with height or depth exceeding a quarter wavelength of heght the surface is....
Optically flat.
If an object is in free fall, what is the only force that is acting upon that object?
Gravity
Three methods of additive mixing
-Send white light through a prism and block out unwanted frequencies
-Presenting different colors in rapid sequence to the eye
-Color printing/overlay
An arrow showing the direction of a wave front.
Ray
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
