Q

What is the only energy visible to human eye?

21
Q

What form of energy is light?

A

Electromagnetic radiation

22
Q

What are the properties of light?

A

wave length, frequency,energy,speed

23
Q

What is the law of reflection?

A

The light ray going in is the incident ray, the light ray going out is the reflected ray and the imaginary line in the middle is called the normal

24
What is convex?
Bounces off and spreads out the rays
25
What is concave?
Tarvels inwards
26
What colours make cyan?
Green,blue
27
What colours make magenta?
blue,red
28
What colours make yellow?
red,green
29
What is a medium?
A medium is something sound waves need to travel through
30
Explain white light:
This is a combination of all colours and when it hits a surface it absorbs all the colours and on reflects the colour you see.
31
How fast does sound travel?
340m/s
32
How fast does light travel?
300 000 000m/s
33
Why does light travel at different speads?
Because of the different densities, e.g solid,liquid,gas
34
What is deficiency?
This happens when the body dosen't get the right amount of nutrients
35
What is villi?
Tiny projections made up of cells
36
What is a pancreas?
Controls blood sugar levels
37
What is the liver?
Produces bile and stores products of digestion
38
What is reflection?
When light or sound bounces off a surface back to us
39
What is refraction?
The bending of light or sound waves
40
What is kinetic energy?
Something moving
41
Do energy particles expand?
No, they mover side to side
42
What is the law of conservation energy?
Energy can be changed from one to another but can't be created or destroyed
43
What is conduction?
Heat transferred through direct contact
44
What is radiation?
Heat travelling in waves
45
What is covection?
Heat moving through liquids or gases
46
What are 2 active forms of energy?
kinetic, thermal
47
What are 2 potential forms of energy?
gravitational, elastic
48
What is a convection current?
A circular motion of heat
