The section discusses how our eyes perceive objects only when light enters them. It highlights the role of light in visibility, differentiating between objects that emit light and those that reflect it. It also introduces how polished surfaces like mirrors reflect light.
The section dives into the fundamental principle of visibility, which is predicated on light. We often assume that our eyes are the sole reason we see objects; however, in darkness, sight becomes impossible, demonstrating that eyes alone cannot enable vision. Light is the key factor; it can either come directly from the object itself (like a bulb) or be reflected from other surfaces (like a wall or mirror).
Familiarizing students with the principles of reflection, the section ties back to previously learned content about polished surfaces acting as mirrors. Students are encouraged to explore how mirrors change the direction of light and posed questions such as the direction of light reflection from surfaces. This exploration sets the stage for understanding concepts of light pathways and reflections.
Light: The primary factor needed for visibility.
Reflection: The process that allows us to see objects by bouncing light off them.
Mirror: A surface that reflects light to make images visible.
Visibility: Dependent on the interaction of light with objects.
Without light, it’s a fright; with it, everything's bright!
Once, in a dark cave, a brave explorer found a glowing crystal that lit up the entire area, revealing hidden creatures and treasures.
Remember 'LIGHT' - Light Illuminates, Gives Hope and Truth.
A flashlight emits light, allowing us to see objects in the dark.
A lake reflects the sun's light, allowing us to see the image of a tree when looking across the water.
A polished table surface acts like a mirror and can reflect images.
