The correct Answer is:
To solve the question of choosing the correct statement regarding light, we will analyze each statement provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the First Statement**: - The first statement is "Light causes sensation of vision." - This is true because vision is only possible when light reflects off objects and enters our eyes. Without light, we cannot see anything. **Hint**: Think about what happens when you turn off the lights in a room. Can you see anything? 2. **Analyzing the Second Statement**: - The second statement is "The sensation of heat is due to the presence of IR radiation." - This statement is also correct. Infrared (IR) radiation is a type of light that we cannot see, but it is responsible for the sensation of heat. When we feel warmth from sunlight, it is primarily due to IR radiation. **Hint**: Consider how you feel warmth from a heater or the sun, even if you can't see the radiation itself. 3. **Evaluating the Third Statement**: - The third statement is "Light travels in a straight line." - This statement is true as well. Light does travel in straight lines unless it encounters a medium that causes it to bend (refraction) or an obstacle that blocks it, creating shadows. **Hint**: Recall how shadows are formed when an object blocks light. What does that tell you about the path of light? 4. **Conclusion**: - Since all three statements are correct, the answer to the question is that all of the above statements are true. **Final Answer**: All of the above statements are correct regarding light.

To solve the question of choosing the correct statement regarding light, we will analyze each statement provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the First Statement**: - The first statement is "Light causes sensation of vision." - This is true because vision is only possible when light reflects off objects and enters our eyes.
