When white light strikes this object, the light is completely absorbed, with none of it transmitted or reflected. Which type of object could this be?
- a black piece of paper
- a clear windowpane
- a white sheet of plastic
- a green long-sleeved shirt
Which property causes a pencil to appear bent or broken when it is placed in a glass partially filled with water?
- Normal
- Reflection
- Refraction
- Absorption
Why is it often colder on cloudy summer days?
- More sunlight is reflected than transmitted by the dark lower layers of clouds.
- More sunlight is transmitted than reflected by the white upper surface of clouds.
- More sunlight is absorbed than transmitted by the dark lower layer of clouds.
- More sunlight is reflected than transmitted by the white upper surface of clouds.
What happens to light as it passes through a blue sports drink?
- All colors are absorbed by the drink except for blue, which is transmitted through the drink.
- All colors are refracted by the drink except for blue, which is reflected through the drink.
- All colors are transmitted through the drink except for blue, which is absorbed by the drink.
- All colors are reflected by the drink except for blue, which is absorbed by the drink.
1. b (a black piece of paper)
2. b (refraction)
3. a (More sunlight is reflected than transmitted by the white upper surface of clouds.)
4. a (All colors are absorbed by the drink except for blue, which is transmitted through the drink)
you got this is correct!!!
- a black piece of paper
- Refraction
- More sunlight is reflected than transmitted by the dark lower layers of clouds.
- All colors are absorbed by the drink except for blue, which is transmitted through the drink.
Trump 2024! you can't put just the letters because they are in a different order for everyone. The answer might be C for you but it could be D for someone else so you need to spell the answers out like the people did above. Have a great day!
To identify the correct answers to these questions, it is helpful to understand the basic principles of optics, such as absorption, reflection, refraction, and transmission of light.
1. When white light strikes an object and is completely absorbed, with none of it transmitted or reflected, the object appears black. Therefore, the correct choice is "a black piece of paper" since black objects absorb all colors of light.
2. When a pencil is placed in a glass partially filled with water, the light passing through the water is bent or refracted. This bending of light is known as refraction. Therefore, the correct choice is "refraction."
3. Clouds can affect temperature due to their ability to reflect, transmit, or absorb sunlight. In this case, the dark lower layers of clouds reflect more sunlight than they transmit, causing less sunlight to reach the surface. This results in colder temperatures. Therefore, the correct choice is "More sunlight is reflected than transmitted by the dark lower layers of clouds."
4. The color perception of a drink depends on how it interacts with light. Blue sports drink appears blue because all colors except blue are absorbed, while blue is transmitted through the liquid. Therefore, the correct choice is "All colors are absorbed by the drink except for blue, which is transmitted through the drink."
Understanding these basic principles helps in approaching similar questions and applying the appropriate concepts to arrive at the correct answers.
