Now, accelerated electrons scatter light.
-
So here comes the light in.
-
We'll see if this works.
-
Okay, so it makes the electron go up and down,
-
as the light goes by.
-
But up and down moving of electrons, accelerating electrons,
-
is what creates electric fields. Right?
-
That's what an antenna is, is electrons moving back and forth.
-
So when the original light comes through and hits the electron
-
and makes it vibrate up and down,
-
that electron vibrating emits radiation,
-
electromagnetic radiation, in all directions;
