Answer:
The way that light waves interact with different mediums is called the refraction.
When does reflection occur?: It occurs when light waves collide with a medium, causing the light waves to bounce off. The light reflects off the medium at a similar angle to which it initially stuck the material
Light reflects off of the medium at a 40 degree angle to which it initially struck the material. This means that if the light hits a mirror at a 40-degree angle, it will bounce off at a 40 degree angle. Draw a picture of what this looks like. (you'll have to draw the picture by yourself)
When does refraction occur?: It occurs when light travels through a transparent medium, causing them to bend and change direction. AS the light passes from air into water, it bends.
When light can pass through an object, it is called transmission.
When does absorption occur?: It occurs when light waves strike a medium and are neither reflected or refracted, nor are allowed to pass through.
Describe how visible light interacts with these materials:
• Mirror: Visible white light that is directed onto the surface of a mirror at an angle (incident) is reflected back into space by the mirror surface at another angle (reflected) that is equal to the incident angle, as presented for the action of a beam of light from a flashlight on a smooth, flat mirror.
• Glass of water: The light travels straight through the glass, but the direction it is traveling bends when entering and leaving the object.
• Dark fabric: Dark objects (fabric) absorb those wavelengths, and lighter objects reflect more. The temperature of the black fabrics shown in visible and near-infrared (shown on the left) over time.
What are some examples of matter waves?: Sound waves, waves in a Slinky, and water waves are all examples of this.
What are some examples of electromagnetic waves?: Gamma rays, light waves, wireless waves, & X-rays are examples.
How are electromagnetic waves different from matter waves?: The main difference between electromagnetic waves and matter waves is in the components that make them. Also, there is no need for sound radiation to pass through a medium/requirement to communicate with other particles to travel like waves of matter.
Would outer space be an ideal spot for a concert? Why or why not?: (you can change this depending on your opinion) No, it wouldn't. There is no oxygen up in outer space, as well as gravity to keep the people, as well as the instruments grounded. The likelyhood of floating away is very high, so, as soon as you get there you wouldn't be able to see the concert at all.
Matter waves need to interact with particles of either a solid, liquid, or gas to travel.
Record your findings of sound and light waves for each of the following.
• Traveling through air: The light waves pass thru the air more quickly than sound waves.
• Traveling through metal: Sound waves almost always go through a metal frame.
• Why light travels faster: Light waves travel faster than electrical signals even though they don't have to crash in electromagnetic waves to particles.

I hope this helps! This took forever lol. All of the anwsers are in bold!
