This document discusses the properties and behaviors of light. It defines light as a form of energy that allows us to see and explains how light can reflect off objects, causing reflections. When light hits smooth, flat surfaces it reflects in one direction, but rough surfaces cause light to bounce in many directions. The document also describes how objects can block light and cast shadows, and how light can bend or refract when passing through different materials like water and lenses. Different uses of light are presented, including how the sun provides energy for life on Earth and how humans now use electric lights indoors.
