the situation to the vocabulary word.
radio waves travel from a radio station to a listeners car.
transmission
a rainbow is observed across the sky on a rainy day.
absorption
a woman uses a mirror to apply make-up.
reflection
a solar panel converts sunlight into electricity.
refraction

Explanation:

1. Radio waves moving from a station to a car is the act of sending the signal, matching transmission.
2. Rainbows form when light bends (refracts) through water droplets, separating colors, matching refraction.
3. Mirrors work by bouncing light back, so using a mirror for makeup relies on reflection.
4. Solar panels take in sunlight and convert it, which involves absorbing light energy, matching absorption.

Answer:

• Radio waves travel from a radio station to a listener's car. → transmission
• A rainbow is observed across the sky on a rainy day. → refraction
• A woman uses a mirror to apply make-up. → reflection
• A solar panel converts sunlight into electricity. → absorption
