All the light is absorbed, except that portion of the spectrum matching the object's color. That particular bandwidth is reflected. Hence a yellow object appears yellow, and a blue object appears blue. Black objects absorb light without reflecting any, while white objects reflect almost all the visible light which strikes them.
The object may then emit the absorbed energy in the infrared spectrum (heat).

When light is bounced off an object it cannot pass through it is?
There are many objects that no light can pass through, although of course, it depends on what type of light you're talking about. The name of the type of object that visible light cannot pass through is called opaque.
What is a substance that dose not transmit light?
An opaque object does not reflect light. Opaque objects absorb light.
What happens when light hits an object it cannot pass through?
If the light can not pass through a object it is opaque . The light will reflect or be absorbed by the object.
The area of darkness formed when an object blocks light is called a?
Its an opaque object.
What happens when light falls on opaque objects?
"Black" means "no light". That's why a dark room looks black at niight.If an object really looks black, then you know that it must have absorbed any lightthat hit it, because there's none left to bounce from the object into your eyes.
What is produced when light strikes on opaque object?
Either the light reflect from the object or absorbed into the object.
What happens to light that strikes an opaque material?
It gets absorbed or reflected
What will happen when light strikes a opaque object?
The light is absorbed and changed to tiny amount of heat.
When the path of light is blocked by an object what happens?
If the object is opaque to the frequency of light impinging on it, some of the light will be reflected and the rest will be converted to heat in the opaque object.
When light strikes a opaque object the light changes to this in the objest?
It absorbed and changed to tiny amount of heat.
What happens when light strikes an opaque materials?
The light is absorbed and change to tiny amount of heat
What happens when light strikes opaque materials?
The light is absorbed and change to tiny amount of heat
What happens when light strikes on opaque material?
most of the light is absorbed. the darker a color is, the more light it absorbs
What happens when an objects is in the path of lights?
If the object is opaque to the frequency of light impinging on it, some of the light will be reflected and the rest will be converted to heat in the opaque object.
Nearly all the light that strikes an opaque object will pass through and cast a shadow?
Hardly any passes through, that's why its called opaque.
What happens to light when its strikes an object?
The light waves can be reflected, absorbed, they can pass the object or be refracted.,
A material that reflects or absorbs all of the light that strikes it is?
A material that reflects or absorbs any light that strikes it is opaque.Tranlucent or transparent materials allow some or all light to pass through.
