Really think about what is an absolute must that you cannot live without and leave the rest at home.

Incandescent sources use heat to produce light. Nearly all solids, liquids and gases will start to glow with a dull red colour once they reach a temperature of about 525 C. At about 2300 C, the filament in a light bulb will start to produce all of the colours of the visible spectrum, so it will look white. The Sun, stars, a flame and molten metal are all incandescent.


Luminescent sources are normally cooler and can be produced by chemical reactions, such as in a glowstick or a glow-worm. Other luminescent sources include a computer screen, fluorescent lights and LEDs.


Once light has hit another surface or particles, it is then absorbed, reflected (bounces off), scattered (bounces off in all directions), refracted (direction and speed changes) or transmitted (passes straight through).


In 1905, Albert Einstein proposed that light is made of billions of small packets of energy that we now call photons. These photons have no mass, but each photon has a specific amount of energy that depends on its frequency (number of vibrations per second). Each photon still has a wavelength. Shorter wavelength photons have more energy.


In order to understand the world we live in, scientists often use models. Sometimes, several models are needed to explain the properties and behaviours of a phenomenon. For example, to understand the behaviour of light, two models are needed. Light needs to be thought of as both waves and particles.
