A blank is an isometry that maps all points of a figure the same distance in the same direction?
reflection
What is white color produced of?
White is technically the reflection of all colours on the spectrum while black is all colours' absorbtion.
What do bugs find so interesting about light bulbs?
Insects use moonlight to navigate. As the moon is very far away it seems to be in a constant place in the sky all night. To stay on a straight course insects keep the moon at a fixed angle to their direction of flight. However an artificial light is so close that when an insect mistakes it for the moon keeping it at a fixed angle to the direction of flight causes the insect's flight to become a spiral toward that light source instead of a straight line. When they spiral into the light bulb's surface all that happens is they keep bouncing off it and are unable to figure out how to fly away. However before light bulbs when the major light sources were open flames (e.g. candles, campfires) an insect spiraling into into an artificial light flew into the flame itself and burned up suddenly in a brief flash of light.
What color do you get if you mix every color in the rainbow together?
you do not get any color, normal light is contain of all colors (color is light whit various wave length) Actually, white isconsidered a color. That is the white light we pass through a prism or diffraction film in physics class to get the rainbow pattern. *NOTE* transmissive On the other hand, mixing paints together results in brownish icky color. *NOTE* reflection and absorption
What are light bulbs that save energy called?
EcoSmart, ArmorLite, Philips, GE, and Sylvania all make a line of energy saving light bulbs. They all manufacture LEDs, CFLs, and halogen bulbs. All of these bulbs are comparable in performance and all of these products are energy savers.
Reflection of the light in all directions is called?
LIGHT
What type of reflection occurs when light strikes a surface at many points that all bounce off in the same direction?
regular reflection
What is reflecting light in all directions called?
Visible light causes reflection of light in all directions
Reflection of light in all directions?
When light falls on a plane polished surface,it changes its direction.This is called reflection of light.
Why cant you see your reflection in all objects that replect light?
You cannot see your reflection in all objects that reflect light because of diffuse reflection.
What is The interaction of light with a surface is called?
The interaction of light beams with a surface is called regular reflection when the light beams reflect off all points of the surface at the same angle. When the light beams hit the surface and reflect off in different angles it is called diffuse reflection.
Is a regular reflection the reflection of light from a rough surface?
with rough surface, the light hitting it will reflect incoherently, meaning it will be scattered in every direction and with smooth surfaces like ice or mirror the light will reflect coherently, all going in the same direction
What is a word for reflection of light in all directions?
reflection
Why can't you see reflection in all objects that reflect light?
You cannot see your reflection in all objects that reflect light because of diffuse reflection.
The interaction of light beams with a surface is called?
The interaction of light beams with a surface is called regular reflection when the light beams reflect off all points of the surface at the same angle. When the light beams hit the surface and reflect off in different angles it is called diffuse reflection.
What is a reflection?
A reflection is something, such as light, that is reflected from another object. Light, sound and other forms of energy that travel in waves can be reflected from different things. We're probably most familiar with the reflection of light. If we look in a mirror, we see whatever objects are emitting or reflecting light into the mirror at an angle from the "vertical" or "straight on" direction (the normal), but on the opposite side of the angle we are looking into the mirror from. Use the link below to see some diagrams and learn a little more.
What is the difference between a specular and a diffuse reflection?
Specular reflection is when light rays reflect off a surface uniformly in a single direction, like a mirror. Diffuse reflection is when light rays reflect off a surface in many different directions, like a matte surface. Specular reflection creates a clear image, while diffuse reflection scatters light in all directions.
