For example, when white light falls on an apple, the red color bounces off its surface, whereas the other colors get absorbed. Therefore, it appears red.

What does it mean toabsorb light

Introduction: In our daily life, we make many observations, such as a fast bowler taking a run-up before bowling, a tennis player moving her racket backward before hitting the tennis ball and a batsman moving his bat backward before hitting the cricket ball. All these activities are performed to make the ball move with great […]

What happens whenlightis absorbed

Objects like glass, water, and other transparent objects do not absorb light. In fact, they let all the colors of light pass through them.

Light appears to be white in color. However, it is composed of all colors. When it falls on an object, the color of the object that we see is the one which it reflects, and it absorbs the rest of the colors. They do not bounce off the object.

When white light falls on a banana, the yellow color bounces off its surface, whereas the other colors get absorbed. Therefore, it appears to be yellow.

Objects can be seen either when they emit light or reflect light from a source. Objects are of different colors. We can see objects in different colors. In this session, we will find out the reason behind seeing colors.

Introduction Uniform and Non-Uniform Motion Moving objects move in many different ways. Some move fast and some slowly. Objects can also move in different kinds of paths. We shall categorize the motions done by objects into two categories based on the pattern of their pace of motion in this session. Explanation: Uniform Motion: Let us […]

Introduction: Evolution Weather Forecasting Weather forecasting is the use of science and technology to forecast atmospheric conditions for a certain place and period. Meteorology is used to forecast how the weather will behave in the future after collecting objective data on the atmosphere’s actual state in a certain area. Weather Tools Meteorologists use many tools […]

The color of an object is not contained within the object. In fact, it is the result of the light which strikes the object and is reflected by it.

Introduction: Fossils are the preserved remains of plants and animals whose bodies were buried under ancient seas, lakes, and rivers in sediments such as sand and mud. Any preserved trace of life that is more than 10,000 years old is also considered a fossil. Soft body parts decompose quickly after death, but hard body parts […]
