Absorption

Radiation (correct)

Refraction is the bending of light as it travels from one material to another. An example of where it occurs in everyday life is when light passes through a glass of water, causing the image to appear distorted.

Melting ice in a glass

Feeling heat near a fire (correct)

Boiling water on a stove

Touching a hot pan

<p>Light behaves like a wave because it exhibits properties such as diffraction, interference, and polarization. It also behaves like particles because it can be emitted and absorbed in discrete amounts called photons. An example of this is the photoelectric effect, where light can cause electrons to be emitted from a metal surface.</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>A rainbow is formed when sunlight passes through raindrops and is refracted, or bent, as it enters the droplet. The light is then reflected inside the droplet and refracted again as it exits, causing it to split into its component colors. This is known as dispersion. The colors of the rainbow are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet, which can be remembered with the acronym ROYGBIV.</p> Signup and view all the answers
