The document summarizes how different objects reflect and refract light. It explains that a mirror reflects light because it is shiny, smooth and opaque, causing light to travel in a straight line. When light hits a prism, it refracts by bending as it passes through the prism and slows down. Water reflects above water by showing faces, and refracts under water by making objects look bent as light slows down when passing through it. A mirror reflects light due to its opaque and shiny surface, while a prism refracts light by allowing it to pass through and bend due to being translucent or transparent. Light always travels in straight lines and reflects or refracts at the same angle that it hits the surface.

2. Laser and
mirror
The reason why the laser
was reflecting was because
the laser was hitting the
mirror and the mirror
reflects light. It is
shiny,smooth,and it is opaque.
3. How light travels
in a strait line
Light travels in a straight
line because.... When it hit
the prism it refracts but
in a straight line.
4. How water
reflects and
refracts
The way it
The way waterrefracts is when
you look under
reflects is
water and it
when you look
looks bent. When
at water fromit goes through it
above and you slows down and
see your face
bends
5. How a mirror
reflects and a
prism refracts
The way the mirror
reflects is because it is
opaque and shiny and
clear
The way a prism refracts is
because it is either
translucent or transparent
and let's light go through
6. Angles
The way that light
bounces from one angle to
the same angle is because
it travels in a straight line
so it will keep on going on
a straight line.
