Question

Moon is a luminous body in the sky.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

Drawing the diagram of the situation:

1. Luminous objects are those which emit light on their own. They won't take the help of other objects to emit the light.
2. Example:- stars, burning candles, etc.
3. A non-luminous object is one that does not produce its own light, although it can still reflect light from other sources.
4. The Moon is an example of a non-luminous object; we can only see the Moon because it reflects light from the Sun (which is a luminous object). Planets are also non-luminous objects.

Hence, the statement of the question is false.
