Light — Reflection

Science · Grade 8 · Week 17 · 25 questions

Light travels in straight lines, bounces off mirrors, and bends through lenses. Understanding how light behaves explains everything from rainbows to eyeglasses to cameras.

What you'll practise

  • Work with angles
  • Explain reflection and refraction of light
  • Describe how mirrors and lenses form images
  • Understand the visible spectrum and colours
