  • Starlight, electro-magnetic fields, and black holes.
  • Black holes, sound, electro-magnetic fields.
  • Starlight, gravity, and refraction of light.
9
What falls off as one over the distance square? (If you are 10x farther away from the source, then the light is 10^2 = 100x fainter.) It also is known as what law?
  • Light/Inverse Square Law
  • Sound/Inverse Square Law

10
Light can be polarized which means:
  • Gravity bends and pulls the light as it approaches you.
  • It's electric field is vibrating in only onw direction as it approaches you.
