Light is a form of energy that can be produced both naturally (e.g., the sun) and artificially (e.g., through electrical energy in a torch bulb).
Transparent Objects
These objects allow light to pass through them, like glass. We can see objects behind them because light passes through.
Opaque Objects
These objects block light completely, such as wood, books, or brick walls.
Light travels in a straight line, and when it encounters an object, it may be blocked or pass through depending on the object's properties.
Shadows are formed when an object blocks the path of light. The shape of the shadow corresponds to the shape of the object blocking the light.
When light hits a shiny surface, it bounces back, forming an image. A plane mirror is an example where the reflection of light results in the formation of an image.
When light passes from one transparent medium (like air) into another (like water), it bends, causing a phenomenon known as refraction. This is why objects under water may appear bent or distorted. The bending of light can be demonstrated with a pencil immersed in water.
This understanding of light's behavior—through transparency, opacity, reflection, and refraction—lays the foundation for exploring more complex topics like optics and vision.
