Which of these is a source of light?
One of these is not a source of light
This type of light if produced when ultraviolet light is absorbed:
incandescent
bioluminescent
phosphorescent
flourescent
One advantage that fluorescent tubes have over incandescent bulbs is that:
The fluorescent tubes are cooler because they use less thermal energy.
The fluorescent tubes have toxic components.
Incandescent bulbs are less expensive to make.
Incandescent bulbs are brighter.

Travels straight through it.
Is scattered by the object into different directions.
It moves around the object.
It is reflected back and casts a shadow.

The energy pathway for an incandescent source is:
Visible light becomes electrical energy which then becomes thermal energy.
Thermal energy becomes visible light energy which then becomes electrical energy.
Electrical energy becomes thermal energy which then becomes visible light energy.
Electrical energy becomes visible light energy which then becomes thermal energy.

Goes straight through it.
Becomes lots of smaller rays of light.
Moves around the object.
Is reflected back by the object.
