20
Q

What is the only energy visible to human eye?

A

Light

21
Q

What form of energy is light?

A

Electromagnetic radiation

22
Q

What are the properties of light?

A

wave length, frequency,energy,speed

23
Q

What is the law of reflection?

A

The light ray going in is the incident ray, the light ray going out is the reflected ray and the imaginary line in the middle is called the normal

24
Q

What is convex?

A

Bounces off and spreads out the rays

25
Q

What is concave?

A

Tarvels inwards

26
Q

What colours make cyan?

A

Green,blue

27
Q

What colours make magenta?

A

blue,red

28
Q

What colours make yellow?

A

red,green

29
Q

What is a medium?

A

A medium is something sound waves need to travel through

30
Q

Explain white light:

A

This is a combination of all colours and when it hits a surface it absorbs all the colours and on reflects the colour you see.

31
Q

How fast does sound travel?

A

340m/s

32
Q

How fast does light travel?

A

300 000 000m/s

33
Q

Why does light travel at different speads?

A

Because of the different densities, e.g solid,liquid,gas

34
Q

What is deficiency?

A

This happens when the body dosen’t get the right amount of nutrients

35
Q

What is villi?

A

Tiny projections made up of cells

36
Q

What is a pancreas?

A

Controls blood sugar levels

37
Q

What is the liver?

A

Produces bile and stores products of digestion

38
Q

What is reflection?

A

When light or sound bounces off a surface back to us

39
Q

What is refraction?

A

The bending of light or sound waves

40
Q

What is kinetic energy?

A

Something moving

41
Q

Do energy particles expand?

A

No, they mover side to side

42
Q

What is the law of conservation energy?

A

Energy can be changed from one to another but can’t be created or destroyed

43
Q

What is conduction?

A

Heat transferred through direct contact

44
Q

What is radiation?

A

Heat travelling in waves

45
Q

What is covection?

A

Heat moving through liquids or gases

46
Q

What are 2 active forms of energy?

A

kinetic, thermal

47
Q

What are 2 potential forms of energy?

A
