Light rays carry energy, and energy means light can do work. If you’ve ever stayed out in the sun too long, you know one job light can do is make human skin burn.
What else can light energy do? Take a look around you! Light can make:
—curtains and carpets fade
—tomatoes get ripe faster
—a car get sizzling hot inside
—a solar calculator work
—a puddle dry up faster
—what else?
