2. Introduction
Luminous: Objects that emit light
Non-luminous: Can only be seen if they are reflecting
light from a luminous source.
Rays: Smaller lines of light.
3. Classifying Non-Luminous Object
Non-luminous materials can be classified as
transparent, translucent, or opaque according to the
way light behaves when it meets them.
4. Shadows
Shadow = Region without light.
Shape of the shadow may not identical to the shape of
the object.
5. Studying Reflections
Incident ray
Reflected ray
Normal
Angle of incidence

10. Refraction & Dispersion
Bending of the light ray is called refraction.
Dispersion is the process in which the wavelengths
that travels at slightly different speeds and are spread
out.
12. Colours
There are 3 main colours : Blue light, red light, and
green light.
These 3 main colours are combined to produce a new
colour in a different proportion for every new colour.
