What type of material scatters light as it passes through?

Glass or clear plastic in the form of a prism will scatter white light so you can observe the full spectrum of colors


What happens to white light after it passes through a prism and why?

The light is broken down into 7 colors which are voilet, indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange, and red. The same happens in water molecules during a rainy day. This is because the light gets refracted.


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.


What colors absorb the most colors in light spectrum?

red and violet light. it reflects green light. Red and violet are on the outside of the ROYGBIV white light spectrum. so its actually more about the wavelength of the light absorption rather than color


What part of the electromagnetic spectrum is most absorbed by water?

Water is cyan because it absorbs red light. The froth in the waves is white because, like clouds, it is composed of variety of tiny water droplets that scatter light of all the visible frequencies. Water is transparent to light of nearly all the visible frequencies, it strongly absorbs infrared waves. Water molecules resonate to the frequencies of infrared. Energy of the infrared waves is transformed into internal energy in the water, which causes red light to be a little more strongly absorbed in water than blue light. Electromagnetic waves that stimulate the sensation of color when the vibrations interact with the cone-shaped receiving antennae in the retinas of our eyes. Our eye-to brain interactions produce the beautiful colors we see.

Why the sky looks blue?

Air molecules scatter, that is, they scatter sun's light into all directions. This results in different colors of white light to split into all directions, making blue color split the most, leading to the formation of blue color.


Why is the sky blue and the sunset red?

colors with short wavelengths scatter more


How do light waves interact to create color?

They don't interact to create color, each individual light wave has a specific color. They "interact" to produce white light (all colors).

When is rainbow formed?

When sunlight passes through raindrops, the drops scatter the light which then appears to the onlooker to form a band of colors in the sky - or as we call it, a rainbow.


Why do different elements have different colors?

The color of objects is determined by their ability to reflect, absorb, scatter or transmit light and also by the anatomy& physiology of the eye and brain.

How did early humans interact?

Early humans interacted through verbal communication, gestures, and possibly rudimentary forms of writing or drawing. They also formed social groups to share resources, provide protection, and engage in cooperative activities such as hunting and gathering. These interactions helped early humans survive and thrive in their environments.


What material do not scatter light?

not material, but color. the color black absorbs all colors in light and reflects no light to enter your eyes. black is only visible by contrast on other things you can see.
