Answer:
T
he world is largely known through
the senses. The sense of sight
is one of the most important
senses. Through it we see mountains,
rivers, trees, plants, chairs, people and
so many other things around us. We also
see clouds, rainbows and birds flying
in the sky. At night we see the moon
and the stars. You are able to see the
words and sentences printed on this
page. How is seeing made possible?
16.1 What makes Things
Visible
Have you ever thought how we see
various objects? You may say that eyes
see the objects. But, can you see an
object in the dark? It means that eyes
alone cannot see any object. It is only
when light from an object enters our
eyes that we see the object. The light
may have been emitted by the object, or
may have been reflected by it.
You learnt in Class VII that a polished
or a shiny surface can act as a mirror. A
mirror changes the direction of light
that falls on it. Can you tell in which
direction the light falling on a surface
will be reflected? Let us find out.
16.2 Laws of Reflection
Activity 16.1
Fix a white sheet of paper on a
drawing board or a table. Take a
comb and close all its openings
except one in the middle. You can
use a strip of black paper for
this purpose. Hold the comb
perpendicular to the sheet of paper.
Throw light from a torch through
the opening of the comb from one
side (Fig. 16.1). With slight
adjustment of the torch and the
comb you will see a ray of light along
the paper on the other side of the
comb. Keep the comb and the torch
steady. Place a strip of plane mirror
in the path of the light ray (Fig.
16.1). What do you observe?
After striking the mirror, the ray of
light is reflected in another direction.
The light ray, which strikes any surface,
is called the incident ray. The ray that
comes back from the surface after
reflection is known as the reflected ray
