No, our sight comes from light rays reflecting off of the object and coming into our eyes. Without a source of light that's not the object, the object itself must be luminescent (emitting it's own light).

Can you see an object which is not a source of light in the dark?

Yes, you can see an object that is not a source of light in the dark if there is a light source nearby that illuminates it. Objects are visible when they reflect light; without any light, they remain invisible. However, in complete darkness, without any light, such objects cannot be seen.


How do dark objects differ from light ones when it comes to absorption of radiation?

Dark objects absorb more radiation than light objects because they reflect less light. The photons from the radiation are absorbed by the dark object, increasing its temperature. Light objects reflect more radiation, which is why they tend to stay cooler in the sun compared to dark objects.


Why do dark objects absorb and white objects reflect light?

Dark objects absorb wavelengths of energy that are in the visible spectrum of the electromagnetic radiation spectrum. A black shirt has molecules in it thatt absorbs energies of blue and green and all other colors we humans perceive. White light is made from all of the colors combined. A white shirt has atoms and molecules that absorb all the colors of light and release that energy outwards again.


When light is absorbed does it get attracted to dark objects?

No, light is not attracted to dark objects. When light is absorbed by an object, it is converted into other forms of energy (such as heat) or used in various processes depending on the material. Dark objects appear dark because they absorb more light and reflect less compared to lighter objects.
