    LIGHT
    • Light is an electromagnetic wave, namely the
    wave the vibration of which is electric field
    and magnetic field.
    • Light is included into transversal wave.
    • Light can spread without medium, so light can
    spread in vacuum.
    While several properties of light among
    other are :
    • Spreading according to straight line
    • Has energy
    • Can be seen
    • Radiated in the form of radiation
    • Has spreading direction perpendicular to
    vibration direction
    • Can experience reflection, refraction,
    interference, diffraction, and polarization
    Bodies that can spread light is
    called light source. While bodies
    that cannot spread light theirself is
    called dark body.
    Sorting light sources
    Natural vs. Man-made (artificial)
    Are these light sources?

    moon mirror
    water

    These items are not light sources, instead they


    are reflecting light from other sources.
    light
    source

     Light rays travel in straight lines from the light source.


     When it hits an opaque object, some light is absorbed and
    the rest reflects off.
     If the object is transparent, light rays pass through it
    easily.
     If the object is translucent, some light can pass through,
    but the rest of the light will be reflected.
    Light Reflection

    Angle of incidence

    Angle of reflection

    The ‘angle of
    If a light hits a reflection’ is
    body surface always equal
    commonly will to the ‘angel
    be reflected. of incidence’.
    r = i
    Law of Reflection

    • Incident angle, normal line and


    reflected ray lie on one flat plane

    • Incidence angle is equal to reflected


    angle (i=r)
    How does light form shadows?

    light light
    source source

     Light rays travel in straight lines, radiating out from the


    light source.
     If rays are blocked by an opaque object a shadow forms
    where the light cannot reach.
     If the light source is moved closer to the object, more
    light is blocked and a larger shadow is formed.
    Specular Reflection
    Incidence ray
    Reflection ray

    happens if the stream of light falls on the


    body that its surface is smooth and shiny, so
    direction of the light reflection goes to
    certain direction.
    The diffuse reflection
    Reflection ray

    Incidence ray

    Happens if the stream of light falls on the


    body which its surface is rough (not flat),
    so the stream of paralles rays which fall
    on the body will be reflected to every
    direction.
