All light passes through glass that is transparent. But, if the glass is translucent (such as some bathroom windows or shower doors for privacy), only some light passes through, causing you to not see the object clearly.
then we wouldn't be able to identify from air and glass at all, since light would pass through glass without deflecting at all!!
a transparent object is one that lets light pass through with no shadows formed eg. clear window , transparent glass a translucent object lets only some light go through (not all)and forms a shadow that is very light eg. bathroom window
Light cannot pass though matter but matter is technically atoms, which are mostly space with a few, moving objects - electrons and the nucleus. For glass, the loss of light through the material occurs for all glass.
Glass, being that it is transparent, will allow light to pass through it. Since the bowl relative to your ice cream is concave, it will channel all that light in toward your ice cream, causing it to heat up and melt. I say all that light, meaning all the light that is allowed to pass through. In real systems, light moving from 1 medium to another will refracted through and reflected away; both at differing degrees.
No, not all light waves that travel through a convex lens pass through the focal point. It depends on the wavelength of the light, since light of different wavelengths diffract at different angles when encountering a change in media, such as air to glass, at an angle. Isaac Newton noted this in his study of light and prisms.
All wavelengths of other colors of visible light are absorbed, only the wavelengths of red light will pass thru the glass.

A translucent object is something that you can see through, but not completely. When light hits a translucent object, the light is scattered, meaning only some of the light passed through. An opaque object (like metal or wood) allows no light to pass through, and a transparent object (like glass or air) allows all or most light to pass.

No, such a transparent metal is not possible. Metals are a conductor of electricity. As a result of this, electromagnetic waves of the wavelength of light cannot penetrate it.
Some light is allowed to pass through, but not all, making it translucent.

Yes, glass is a translucent because translucent means permitting light to pass through. Some glass is also transparent, because images of items behind the glass can be seen. Some glass, because of substances mixed into it, are opaque and don't even allow any light at all to get through. Most of what we ordinarily think of as glass is transparent.
Light can pass through some materials. An example of a material like this would be glass. It cant go through all materials. When materials let light through, we call that transparency.
An object which light can travel throughA transparent object is an object that allows all light to pass through. Examples include clear, see-through glass.
