10 Activity of science terms

This is a glossary of science , and remember what we have studied in class about reflection

Diffuse reflection
noun
Diffuse reflection is the reflection of light or other waves or particles from a surface such that a ray incident on the surface is scattered at many angles rather than. But sometimes, a rough surface is made smooth because a layer of liquid covers up the imperfections. Rainwater coating a road is one example. Normally, an asphalt road exhibits diffuse reflection because of the irregular materials making up its surfac
Example: Reflection from rough surfaces, such as asphalt, paper and clothing are examples of diffuse reflection. In diffuse reflection, light rays are scattered randomly at different angles from the reflecting surface.
es: Reflexión difusa
Dimmer
noun
Dimmed lights mean a reduction in energy consumption and the best part is that you can use dimmable LED lamps within a non-dimmable circuit. It should be noted that non-dimmable lamps are not designed to work in a dimmable circuit as both lamp and circuit may get damaged
Example: interruptor, divece
es: Regulador de intensidad
Illuminance
noun
In photometry, illuminance is the total luminous flux incident on a surface, per unit area. It is a measure of how much the incident light illuminates the surface, wavelength-weighted by the luminosity function
Example: An illuminated street
es: Éclairement
Light
Its a noun
Light or visible light is electromagnetic radiation within the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that can be perceived by the human eye. Visible light is usually defined as having wavelengths in the range of 400–700 nm, between the infrared (with longer wavelengths) and the ultraviolet (with shorter wavelengths)
Example: Example: When you reflect light in a non smooth surface with a flash it won't be a perfect reflection like a smashed piece of illumine foil and a light
es: lagerra
light
non-luminous
adjective
not emitting light the results also suggest this galaxy contains a substantial amount of nonluminous matter.—
Example: The non-luminous objects are visible because of luminous objects, the moon and planets are the two examples
es: no luminoso
Optics
noun
he scientific study of sight and the behavior of light, or the properties of transmission and deflection of other forms of radiation.
Example: An example of optics is the technology of an astronomical telescope
es: Optika
Reflection
noun
an instance of reflecting especially : the return of light or sound waves from a surface, the production of an image by or as if by a mirror the action of bending or folding back.
Example: the reflecion reflets the light out side of the garden.
es: Reflexión
Refraction
noun
Refraction, in physics, the change in direction of a wave passing from one medium to another caused by its change in speed.
Example: A thingin a glass of water will look like two things or a broken one
es: Refracción
Shadows
verb
Simply speaking, a shadow is an absence of light. If light cannot get through an object, the surface on the other side of that object (for example, the ground or a wall) will have less light reaching it. A shadow is not a reflection, even though it is often the same shape as the object
Example: An example of shadow is a dark or shaded area on a photograph is when you see your silhouette on the ground when you go outside on a sunny day.
es: Oscuridad
Transparent
adjective
allowing light to pass through so that objects behind can be distinctly seen
Example: This vase is transparent.
es: transparente
