solid or opaque, depending on your context -------------------------------------------------------- um... most solid objects don't allow light through. ------------------------------------------------------- um ... except ice, glass, quartz, most gemstones, many plastics, thin paper, polar bear fur,
Why can't light pass through what? To first contributer, don't say that. Say light cannot pass through solid, opaque objects at times.
Sound is a longitudinal wavelength that has wavelength, velocity, frequency and amplitude. It travels through solid objects by going through vibration.
no

It either reflects off, or is absorbed and converts to another form of energy.
first of all rock is a solid and it is opaque(it doesn't allow light to be transmitted through it). The energy of the light is absorbed by the rock.

Any solid black object does that.
It reflects off of the object, and this is the light we see when we view opaque objects; it can be absorbedby the object, and we do not see this light; or the light can pass through the object in such a way that we can clearly 'see through' the object, such as transparent glass, or light can pass through the object and only appear as a glow, not an image, as is the case with some types of translucent plastic, frosted glass or other kinds of material.
There simply isn't enough space for your atoms to pass through the atoms of a solid object. You can swim in water and walk through a gas because the particles are so spread apart, but you cant walk through solid objects because the particle configuration is extremely dense.
Somewhere between unlikely and impossible.
