Are clouds transparent or translucent

Answer 1

Skin is semi transparent. Light can pass through the skin / epidermis reasonably well, but doesn't reflect in a clean way, meaning that the light scatters.

It can then pass into the dermis layer, but tends not to be able to pass into the subcutanious layer.

If you place a finger close to a strong light, you will will light shining through the skin (you won't see bones though!). See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transillumination

Answer 2

"Prism" is the name of several 3D shapes. They can be made of wood, plastic, clay,

concrete, glass, ice, steel, or any other solid material that will hold a shape.

If you want a prism that you can use for the kind of experiments and demonstrations

that involve the transmission of visible light, then it's wise to get one made of some

transparent material, such as glass.

Answer 3

If they are glass prisms used for making rainbows, then they are transparent.

Answer 4

Clouds are Translucent
