Chemical, Gravitational, Mechanical and Nuclear are all this type of energy, and can also be referred to as "stored energy".

What is Potential Energy?

100

The law of reflection states that this is always equal to the angle of reflection on a plane mirror.

What is Angle of Incidence?

100

This indicates the ratio of speed of light in a vacuum to the speed of light in the given medium.

What is Refractive Index?

100

This is the angle in which light is no longer refracted from one medium to another.

What is the Critical Angle?

100

The Macula helps perceive light, while this eye part helps perceive colours.

What is the Fovea?

200

This is the only natural source of light that can be emitted by animals.

What is Bioluminescence?

200

If light were to bounce off of a smooth mirror, it would cause a regular reflection. If light were to bounce off of a rough surface, it would cause this.

What is Diffuse Reflection?

200

When white light is shown into a prism, it causes this, which separates the light into visible colours and looks like the Pink Floyd logo.

What is Dispersion?

200

These curved mirrors will always produce a real and inverted image.

What are Concave Mirrors?

200

A person with hyperopia might need these types of lenses for glasses because the image forms behind the retina.

What are Converging Lens?

300

On the Electromagnetic Spectrum, the longer this is, the less energy is in that ray. On the contrary, the shorter this is, the more energy is in that ray.

What is Wavelength?

300

We can use the LOST acronym to state image properties. It stands for this, Orientation, Size and Type.

What is Location?

300

This happens when light within a medium completely reflects off of another medium.

What is Total Internal Reflection?

300

It is the transparent cover that protects the pupil and provides refraction.

What is the Cornea?

300

You can tell a person has this when they cannot see objects far away. That's because the image forms before the retina.

What is Myopia?

400

This occurs when light energy remains in the molecules of the material. Transmission would occur if the light energy went through.

What is Absorption?

400

This type of image is formed and appears behind the plane mirror, and doesn't really exist.

What is Virtual?

400

This device is made of a hard transparent material and allows images formed by light to appear closer or farther away.

What are Lenses?

400
There are 3 ways to locate and image using incident rays: parallel to PA and reflects through F, through F and parallel to PA, and through this and out through this again.

What is Centre of Curvature?

400

This eye part transmits information from the retina to the brain.

What is the Optic Nerve?

500

These of light always travel in straight lines, unless they are caused to change directions by a force or object.

What are Photons?

500

This, abbreviated as the PA, runs parallel through curved mirrors and can help locate images.

What is the Principle Axis?

500
The index of refraction of this substance is 2.42. You probably found this at the bottom of the fish tank in that unit test.

What is Diamond?

500

This medium's index of refraction is 2.16.

What is Cubic Zirconia?

500

It determines how much light enters the eye by increasing or decreasing size.

What is the Iris?
