GRAMMAR FOCUS: Infinitive
8. In the following sentences find the infinitives. Name their forms, try to define their functions and translate the sentences into Russian. If you need help, use GRAMMAR FILE 3 (p. 110).
1. The particle theory of light was proposed to explain the bending of light upon reflection from a mirror or upon refraction when passing from air into water.
2. To debate whether light is a particle or a wave is inappropriate because in some experiments light acts like a wave and in others it acts like a particle.
3. Light and other elecromagnetic radiation can be polarized because the waves are transverse
4. Unlike detectors designed specifically to detect light, LEDs detect a relatively narrow band of wavelengths.
5. For the system such as electric vehicles that requires high energy in a short time, it is very important to minimize the internal resistance.
6. Scientists are trying to improve the productivity of solar panels and make them more cost effective.
7. The new light-curing instant adhesive can be used on materials that do not allow light to pass through it, such as metals.
8. Fiber optics uses light pulses to transmit information through a cable.
9. One of the main differences between glass and plastic optical fibers is their diameter making them easier to handle.
10. High voltage cables are the safe way to use and transfer large quantities of electricity at one time.
11. The optical fiber is coated to make it completely reflective on the inside.
12. Photonic metamaterials open up a way to overcome the constraints set by ordinary materials.
13. What does it mean for an atom to be polarized?
14. The creation of energy is said to be like an explosion.
15. Mode theory is used to describe the types of plane waves able to propagate along an optical fiber.
