Q

what is phosphorescence

A

light produced by absorbing UV light like the glow in the dark stars that i once put on my ceiling but i wasnt that into it and the stars were really big and i only put like three and it was really bad.

Q

you would not belive ur eyes butlike all these fireflies are everywhere

A

remember when we had a dance to that song in like grade 5 and it was so BAD

17
Q

LED lights

A

electric current flowing in semi conductors like a christmas light

18
Q

triboluminescenufbfdthwsd is

A

production of light from friction like crystals bein rubbbbed

19
Q

what is specular reflection

A

specTACULAR reflection when the reflecting surface is clear and flat and the ras fly off very nice

20
Q

what is difused reflection

A

when the water is choppy and the light bounces off everywhere makinga blurry reflection

21
Q

how do you describe images in mirrors

A

salt

size, attitude, location, type

22
Q

what is a converging mirror

A

convave where the curve is inwards like a cave cool eh

23
Q

waht is the principal axis

A

line through the center of the mirror

24
Q

what is the vertex

A

where the mirror and principal axis meet

25
Q

what is the focus

A

point where the light rays converge

26
Q

how do you find an image in a concave mirror

A
  1. line straight from the op of teh object to the mirror
  2. line reflects through focus
  3. line from top of image through focus
  4. line reflects off mirror parallel to principal axis
  5. top of image is where the lines intersect
27
Q

ever an imsge at F in converging mirrors

A

NOPE

28
Q

how do you find the image in convex mirrors?

A
  1. arrow from top of object to mirror
    2 line from focus to first line and beyond
    3.line from top of object to focus point
    where line hits mirror, draw a line that goes parallel to the PA
  2. where all lines intersect you can make a lil image bc its always a small image
29
Q

what the law of relection

A

angle of incidence= angle of relfection

30
Q

how do u look head to toe in a mirror

A

eyes to top of head
eyes to eyes
eyes to feet
i guess honestly i kinda forget ooops

31
Q

what is lateral inversion

A

When its right to left instead of left to right like an ambulance

32
Q

ok

A

now go back to the other deck. this is like a choose ur own adventure story but theres only one story and it is never ending.
