Tube light

 

Uses of light energy

It helps us to see things.

It helps plants to make food and grow.

It is used in power satellites and space stations.

It is used in many electronic appliances.

The energy of light from the sun can be harvested to solar panels and can be used for domestic use since it is eco-friendly and cost effective too.

Materials that can reflect light

Smooth and shinning surface like glass,water, or polished metals.

 

 

SOUND ENERGY
