Question

jessie wears sunglasses at the beach to protect her eyes.

how do light waves from the sun interact with the lenses of jessies sunglasses? complete the sentences.

when light waves interact with the lenses of jessies sunglasses, some of the waves are
and transfer energy to the lenses. this makes the sunglasses feel a bit
. other light waves are and change direction, creating a
mirror image of jessies surroundings. as a result of these two interactions, the amount
of light that is transmitted through the lenses is .

Explanation:

1. When light is absorbed by a material, it transfers its energy to the material, which can cause the material to warm up.
2. Reflection is the behavior of light waves bouncing off a surface, which changes their direction and can create visible images of surroundings, as seen in reflective sunglasses.
3. Since a portion of the light is absorbed and another portion is reflected, only a reduced amount of the original light passes through (is transmitted) the lenses.

Answer:

When light waves interact with the lenses of Jessie's sunglasses, some of the waves are absorbed and transfer energy to the lenses. This makes the sunglasses feel a bit warm. Other light waves are reflected and change direction, creating a mirror image of Jessie's surroundings. As a result of these two interactions, the amount of light that is transmitted through the lenses is reduced (or decreased).
