Science Chapter 08: Light, Shadows and Reflections

Opaque objects do not allow light to pass through them. Transparent objects allow light to pass through them and we can see through these objects clearly. Translucent objects allow light to pass through them partially.

Shadows are formed when an opaque object comes in the path of light.

Pinhole camera can be made with simple materials and can be used to image the Sun and brightly lit objects.

Light travels in straight line.

Mirror reflection gives us clear images.
