Across
- 5. A material through which visible light cannot pass.
- 6. The point on an optical axis at which all reflected or refracted light rays from incident rays that are parallel to the optical axis converge.
- 8. A material through which light passes but the light is scattered and does not transmit a clear image.
- 11. A model of light in which the endpoint represents the light’s source and the light travels in one direction.
- 15. An object that is visible because it reflects light from an external source.
- 17. An object that is producing visible light.
- 18. A curved mirror with the reflective side on the outside of the curve.
- 19. Light produced by objects that glow as a result of high temperature.
- 20. An image that forms at the point where converging rays of light intersect.
- 21. One of three colors (red, blue, green) of visible light that the human eye can sense.
- 23. A light ray approaching a surface; an incoming ray.
- 24. A curved mirror with the reflective side on the inside of the curve.
- 26. An image produced by diverging rays.
Down
- 1. A material through which light passes without scattering, transmitting a clear image.
- 2. A color of light that is produced when primary colors are mixed.
- 3. When a chemical reaction gives off energy in the form of light.
- 4. The process where a material glows for a longer period of time after absorbing energy.
- 6. Occurs when a material gives off visible light after absorbing electromagnetic energy.
- 7. The law that states that when a light ray reflects off a surface, the angle of the incident ray equals the angle of the reflected ray.
- 9. A color that forms because of pigments absorbing some wavelengths of light that strike an object.
- 10. A flat mirror.
- 12. A color that is produced by combining the wavelengths of different colors.
- 13. Light produced by some living things.
- 14. Reflection that occurs when a smooth surface reflects light rays in mostly the same direction. (regular reflection)
- 16. Reflection off a rough or uneven surface that reflects light rays in all directions.
- 22. The distance from the center of a lens or mirror to its focal point.
- 25. The ray that bounces off a surface.
