Light is a form of energy Light travels in waves and moves in straight lines When light hits an object the density compactness and color of the object determine whether the light bends bounces off the object is absorbed by the object or passes right through it When light passes through a lens it can make objects look bigger or smaller than they really are Light bounces reflects off shiny surfaces such as mirrors When you look in a mirror you are seeing the light wave being reflected back exactly as it hit the mirror Dull dark objects absorb light rather than reflecting it back Some substances including water bend light waves as the light passes through them
