Multiple Choice
How is energy transferred from the Sun to the Earth?
As air currents
As sound waves
As water currents
As electromagnetic waves
3
LIGHT travels in TRANSVERSE WAVES
Light is a form of energy
emitted by the sun as well as
light-producing objects on
earth.

LIGHT BEHAVIOR
6
LIGHT can be ABSORBED
Absorbed – light energy hitting the
surface is converted to heat energy
a.
Dark or black objects absorb
more light and feel hotter than
lighter or white objects
b.
Objects that do not transmit or
reflect much visible light, absorb
it, so the object appears opaque
(you can't see through it)
7
Multiple Choice
The diagram shows the relationship between the earth and the sun.
Which statement best describes the impact of the sun's radiation on Earth?
It causes the Earth to rotate
It causes the Earth to rotate on its axis
Earth deflects heat from the sun.
Earth absorbs heat from the sun
8
Multiple Choice
Which process most likely causes black plastic to feel hot after being exposed to the sun?
absorption
dilation
reflection
scattering
9
Multiple Choice
What result will immediately occur when electromagnetic waves are absorbed by a puddle of water?
The puddle of water will dissapear
The puddle of watter will get larger
The puddle of water will get colder
The puddle of water will get warmer
10
LIGHT can be REFLECTED
Reflected - light that bounces off a
surface
a. All objects reflect some light
to be visible
b. Highly polished surfaces
such as mirrors are opaque
because most of the visible light is
reflected, none is transmitted and
very little is absorbed
c. When light reflects off a
surface, the angle of incidence
(incoming light) is equal to the
angle of reflection (outgoing light)
– called “Law of Reflection”
11
Multiple Choice
Why should snow skiers wear dark sunglasses while skiing?
Sunlight is reflected by the snow
Sunlight is absorbed by the snow
Sunlight is scattered by the snow
Sunlight is transmitted by the snow
12
Multiple Choice
Which type of material reflects the most radiant energy?
dark
dull
shiny
woven
13
Multiple Choice
A student notices that the sunlight striking the ocean appears brighter as compared to the sunlight striking the sand. What process is most likely ocurring to cause this effect?
The sunlight is being reflected
The sunlight is being scattered
The sunlight is being absorbed
The sunlight is being transmitted
14
LIGHT can be TRANSMITTED
Transmitted – light that passes through a substance
a.Transparent – visible light is transmitted easily and
objects are seen clearly
b.Translucent – some visible light is transmitted, but
some is scattered (or diffused) so that objects are not
clearly seen
LIGHT can be transmitted and REFRACTED
The electromagnetic waves
when change from a medium
(gas) to another medium
(liquid) their speed decreases
and caused them to slow down
changing the direction of the
wave.
15
Multiple Choice
Why can students see sunlight shining through a classroom window?
because the light is absorbed through the glass
because the light is reflected through the glass
because light is transmitted through the glass
because the light is scattered through the glass
16
Multiple Choice
Which example best describes light transmission?
light unable to reach an area
light bouncing off a car mirror
light warming a black bicycle seat
light shining through a glass window
17
Multiple Choice
Why does snow melt faster in a black parking lot than in a light gray sidewalk?
The parking lot absorbs the cold better.
The sidewalk radiates a greater amount of heat
The parking lot absorbs more light and converts it to heat
The parking lot is a better insulator and converts it to heat
18
LIGHT can be transmitted and SCATTERED
19
Multiple Choice
What must occur for electromagnetic waves to scatter?
They must be cooled
They must be heated
They must travel through and interact with matter
They must be lost
20
Multiple Choice
Which happens to light when it hits a rough surface?
Absorption
Expansion
Refraction
Scattering
21
Multiple Choice
What most often occurs when sun's rays pass through clouds?
The electromagnetic waves are absorbed.
The electromagnetic waves are scattered.
The electromagnetic waves disappear.
The electromagnetic waves heat up.
22
Differences of wavelengths = Different colors
-Human eyes respond to only a narrow range of wavelengths of
electromagnetic waves-visible light.
-Differences of wavelengths within that range are perceived as
different colors.
23
24
Multiple Choice
Which statement best explains how the color of an object affects the amount of energy it receives from sunlight?
Dark-colored objects absorb more light and become warmer
Dark-colored objects reflect more light and become warmer
Dark-colored objects reflect more light and become warmer
Light-colored objects absorb more light and become warmer
25
Multiple Choice
Which best describes a characteristic of Ultraviolet light?
invisible
harmless
cannot be measured
wavelengths longer than visible light
26
Multiple Choice
How will an object be affected by infrared light rays?
Its freezing point will change
Its boiling point will change
Its temperature will change
Its mass would change
