Answer:

Interference

Explanation:

A CD is made up of thousands of pits arranged in the form of spiral tracks.These repeated patterns of pits form a thin film.

This film has the thickness of the order of the wavelength of the light which causes the interference of the waves of the light waves. The incident ray of light gets reflected from the top layer of the film partially and then after striking the bottom layer of the film creating a phase difference responsible for the constructive and destructive interference.

Rama09 [41]

1. The light phenomena happen due to the refraction of light upon hitting the small crystals that make up cirrus or cirrostratus clouds is called Sundogs.

2.A light phenomena which are formed when light passes through clouds and strikes the ice crystals in them is called Halos.

3.A light phenomenon formed from the combination of several light properties like refraction, reflection, and dispersion is Rainbow.

4.  Rainbow are created after a rain shower and Sun light.

5. A visible accumulations of tiny water droplets or ice crystals.

in the Earth’s atmosphere are called Clouds.

6. There are seven colors in a rainbow.

7. The kind of rainbows are formed when light strikes small raindrops with almost the same size are Supernumerary rainbows.

8.The kind of rainbows are formed when two inner reflections are done instead of one; this causes the reversal of colors in a secondary rainbow in comparison to a primary rainbow are Secondary rainbows.

9. A reflective surface that is curved inward and away from the light source is concave mirror.

10. The kind of mirror are curved outward like the bottom

of a spoon is convex mirror.

<h3>What is reflection?</h3>

When a light strikes on a shiny surface, it reflects back the light ray in the same medium. The phenomenon is called reflection and the ray is called the reflected ray.

Thus, all the questions are answered.
