Source of light, the object and its shadow all are in a
straight line as light travels in a straight line which is
called as Rectilinear Propagation of light.

Answer / ria
Light travels in a straight line through an homogenous
medium. It can be proved by an experiment given below.
Arrange two pieces of cardboard, having pin holes at the
centre of each, vertically, one behind the other. They
should be arranged in such a way that the two holes are
exactly in the same level with each other. Now place a
candle behind and in level with the hole of the second
cardboard. It will be visible when viewed through the hole
of the first cardboard. Now displace one of the cardboards
slightly to its life or right candle would no longer be
visible. This shows that light travels in a straight line.

Answer / sunny
The rays of light travel in a straight line through a
homogenous and transparent medium which never bends until
it is obstructed by any opaque or reflecting body.
This property is stated as the Rectillinear Propagation of
Light.

Answer / john anthony magdalita
Straight line travel. This denotes the fact that Light
travels in a straight line when traveling through a medium
with a constant refractive index.
its very simple.. :D
Light can easily travel in straight line..

Answer / raamu
In a homogeneous medium, light travelsalong a straight line
path until it meets an obstacle. This property executrd by
the light is called " Rectilinear Propagation of Light ".
