    LIGHT

    GRADE 7 SCIENCE
    Where does light come from?

    Our major
    light
    source:
    the Sun
    Where else does light come
    from?
    Sorting light sources
    Natural vs. Man-made
    (artificial)
    SOURCES OF LIGHT

    A. NATURAL SOURCES


    - Acquired or existed in nature.
    Ex. Sun (Main source of Energy)
    LUMINOUS – capable of emitting its own
    light

    B. ARTIFICIAL SOURCES


     -created or manipulated by man.
    Ex. Lamp/bulb
    Are these light sources?

    moon mirror
    water

    These items are not light sources, instead


    they are reflecting light from other
    sources.
    DID YOU
    KNOW ??? Many events or
    Light travels at a phenomena
    speed of 300 000 show that light
    km per second. At travels in a
    this speed, light straight line.
    from sun reaches
    the Earth within 9
    minutes

    How does Light Travel ? The ray Of


    the sun
    How does light travel?
    light
    source

    Light rays travel in straight lines from the light


    source.
    When it hits an opaque object, some light is
    absorbed and the rest reflects off.
    If the object is transparent, light rays pass through
    it easily.
    If the object is translucent, some light can pass
    WHAT IS LIGHT ? ?

    LIGHT – is the Natural gas that


    stimulates sight and makes thing
    visible. .
    LIGHT- is Electromagnetic radiation
    visible to the human eye. .
    LIGHT - is made up of streams of
    photons or
    tiny packet of energy.
    What are the properties of light?

    Brightness
    The intensity of light or brightness of
    light is related to the amount of light being
    seen.
    The closer the source of the light is,
    the greater the intensity or degree of
    brightness.
    The greater the distance the source of
    the light is, the lesser the intensity or
    brightness.
    Properties of light

    Colors
     Light, or “White Light” is made up of all
    colors of light mixed together. If white
    light is passed through a prism, it can
    be separated into light of different
    COLORS. The colors are Red, Orange,
    Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet.
     These are the colors seen in a rainbow.
    Properties of Light

    Visible
     In order for an object to be visible, it
    must either give off its own light (be a
    source of light) or it must reflect light.
     The Sun, a candle flame, or a

    flashlight gives off visible light.


     The Moon and many objects around

    us reflect light in order to be seen.


    ROYGBIV

    Energy is the ability to make something


    move, happen or change.
    Light is a form of energy and is made of
    many colors.
    The different colors of light are revealed
    when white light is passed through a
    prism and separated into the different
    colors of the rainbow called the
    spectrum.
    How Shadow does formed ?

    Can you
    different sizes
    of shadow
    from the same
    Let go for objects ?
    get the
    Answer….

    A shadow is formed
    when light from a light
    source is blocked by an
    opaque or translucent
    Size and Shape of Shadow

    The size of a shadow can be


    changed by changing :
    • Distance between the light
    source and the object
    • Distance between the object
    and the screen
    -TRANSPARENT MATERIAL
    allows you to
    clearly see the
    objects on the
    other side.

    Light can pass


    through.

    Example:
    - regular glass
    -TRANSLUCENT MATERIAL

    Partial light
    can pass
    through.

    Example:
    - Frosted
    glass
    -OPAQUE MATERIAL

    Doesn't let any


    light through
    at all.

    No LIGHT can


    pass through. .

    Reflection of light

    o

    off
    Angle of incidence

    Angle of reflection

    The ‘angle
    of
    reflection’
    is always
    Bouncing of light equal to the
    ‘angel of
    incidence’.
    Light can only be

    o
    reflected in straight

    n
    off
    lines.
    (A)Rays
    reflected from
    a perfectly
    smooth surface
    are parallel to
    each other.
    (B) Diffuse
    reflection from
    a rough
    surface causes
    ray to travel in
    many random
    directions.
    Refraction of Light

    Refraction – Bending of light


     When a light ray moves from one
    transparent material to another, such as
    from water through air, the ray undergoes
    a change in the direction of travel at the
    boundary.
     This change in direction is called
    refraction
     Refraction results from a change in speed

    when light passes from one transparent


    material into another.
    A ray diagram shows refraction at the boundary
    as a ray moves from air through water.
    -THE VISIBLE SPECTRUM

    The visible
    spectrum is the
    portion of the
    electromagnetic
    spectrum that
    is visible to the human
    eye. Electromagnetic
    radiation in this range
    of wavelengths is
    called visible light or
    simply light.
    -THE VISIBLE SPECTRUM

     1.
    ARRANGEMENT OF COLORS IN THE

    VISIBLE SPECTRUM
     2.
    WAVELENGTH AND ENERGY IN THE

    VISIBLE
    SPECTRUM
    ARRANGEMENT OF
    COLOR IN THE
    VISIBLE SPECTRUM
    The visible part of the spectrum may be further
    subdivided according to color, with red at the long
    wavelength end and violet at the short wavelength
    end, as illustrated (schematically) in the following
    figure.
    The sequence of colors red, orange, yellow, green,
    blue, and violet may be remembered by memorizing
    the name of that fine fellow "ROY G. BV". This was
    originally "ROY G. BIV", because it used to be
    common to call the region between blue and violet
    "indigo". In modern usage, indigo is not usually
    distinguished as a separate color in the visible
    spectrum; thus Roy no longer has any vowels in his
    last name
    Color
    Wavelength
    Red 780 – 622

    Orange 622 – 597

    Yellow 597 – 577

    Green 577 – 492

    Blue 492 – 455

    Violet 455 - 390


    The order of colors in light,
    arranged from shortest
    wavelength to longest, is called
    the visible spectrum of light. The
    image shows light's visible
    spectrum, which runs from violet
    to red. You might recognize the
    spectrum as the order of colors
    in a rainbow.
