Gaisma ir starojums, ko var uztvert cilvēka acs.

Gaismas avots ir jebkurš priekšmets, kurš izstaro gaismu.






Gaismas avoti ir dabiskie un mākslīgie.
Dabiskie gaismas avoti - Saule, zibens, vulkāns, zvaigznes, ziemeļblāzma, jāņtārpiņš. Tie izstaro gaismu bez cilvēka iejaukšanās.






Mākslīgie gaismas avoti - svece, lampa, lukturis, spuldze, ugunskurs, salūts, brīnumsvecīte u.c. Šos gaismas avotus ir veidojis cilvēks.






Daudzi spīdoši priekšmeti nav gaismas avoti. Tie gaismu atstaro.
Gaismu atstaro ceļazīmes, atstarotāji, Mēness.



Svarīgi!
Gaismas atstarotāji nav gaismas avoti.
Kad gaismas avotam priekšā gadās šķērslis, tad gaisma tajā vietā cauri neplūst un veidojas ēna. Ēna rodas aiz visiem necaurspīdīgajiem priekšmetiem piemēram, koka cilvēka, mājas, utt.




No rīta un vakarā ēnas ir garas, jo saule ir zemu, un tās stari ir slīpi un gari. Dienas vidū ēnas ir īsas, jo saule ir augstu un tās stari krīt priekšmetam tieši virsū.

Atrodi lukturīti un pārliecinies pats!
