When light bounces back from the
surface.


A periscope is used to see over walls
or other objects. The light is reflected by the two mirrors so that if
people look into the periscope at X they will be able to see an object
at Y.
Title: To show that light is a form of energy
Apparatus: Radiometer, lamp
Method: Place radiometer in a dark area and note there is no movement.
Shine the lamp on the radiometer and observe the solar panels spinning.
Conclusion: Light energy is converted by the radiometer into kinetic
energy and the radiometer moves.
