Q

the bending of light when passing from one medium to another

A

refraction

17
Q

the bending of light when it hits a sharp edge opaque object

A

diffraction

18
Q

the nature of light that normally travels in straight line.

A

rectilinear

19
Q

color can be produce by interference of light waves in thin film like in a soap bubbles or a film of oil floating in water.

A

Interference

20
Q

the nature of light to be absorbed in the process of dark surface.

A

absorption.

21
Q

the character of light to be altered from its colorless into visible state.

A

filtration

22
Q

the process b which the vibration of light is confined to a definite plane, and the speed of light can be measured.

A

polarization

23
Q

these happen when molecules of the fluorescent material absorb energy at one wavelength and radiate it at another wavelength.

A

fluorescence

24
Q

two sources of light

A

natural and artificial

25
Q

coming from nature like the sun, moon, stars, other heavenly bodies, lightning. etc.

A

natural

26
Q

a lighting condition where object in open space cast a deep and uniform or distinct shadow.

A

bright sunlight

27
Q

object in open space cast a transparent shadow.

A

hazy sunlight

28
Q

objects in open space cast no shadow.

A

dull sunlight

29
Q

objects in an open space cast no shadow but objects at far distant are clearly visible.

A

cloudy bright

30
Q

objects in an open space cast no shadow and visibility of distant objects are already limited

A

cloudy dull

31
Q

those that can give continuous illumination

A

continuous radiation

32
Q

it gives a brief flash of light produced by a burning metallic wire (flash bulb) or an electrical discharge through a gas-filled tube (electronic flash)

A

short illumination

33
Q

what are the forensic light sources

A

ultraviolet lamp
laser
alternative light source

34
Q

it comes in variety of shape, size, and power

A

ultra violet lamp

35
Q

this was especially significant in locating dried biological stains.

A

laser

36
Q

it uses a variety of band pass filters to provide a high intensity beam of non-coherent light.

A

alternative light source
