Solution

  1. A non-luminous object is one that does not produce its own light, although it can still reflect light from other sources.
  2. Examples: books, table, chairs, etc.
  3. 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).
