What else can I help you with?
What spreads out when light passes through it?
The spectrum of the light source is spread out by a prism. The wedge shaped glass slows down the light beams and they split into their respective colors. This can be seen in rainbows and other glass and water features.
What is a triangular shaped transparent object that refracts light as it passes through it?
A prism. It can be made of glass, crystal, or other hard clear material.
What is refracting glass?
Refracting glass is glass that has been shaped or curved to bend light as it passes through, causing it to converge or diverge. This is used in lenses, prisms, and other optical instruments to manipulate and focus light for various applications such as in microscopes, cameras, and eyeglasses.
What is an object that allows light to pass through but cannot be seen through?
One example of an object that allows light to pass through but cannot be seen through is frosted glass. Frosted glass has a textured surface that scatters light as it passes through, making it difficult to see objects on the other side clearly.
Why are margarita glasses shaped that way?
A glass for a margarita. Also can be used for other beverages.
What color light is transmitted through blue glass?
Blue light. That's why the glass is called blue.
Why does the ray shining from a glass prism move the other way?
is it because of the way the prism is shaped
What happened when a ray of light is shone at a glass block?
It all depends on the angle if incidence. In general the light will refract i.e. bend through the glass and come out at the other end. Also, the speed of light will vary through the glass.
Does red glass transmit red light waves?
Yes, red glass transmits red light waves by allowing them to pass through while absorbing and reflecting other colors of light. The color of the glass is determined by the selective transmission of certain wavelengths of light.
How do bend light?
lenses bend light by having the light pass through the glass(or whatever material) of the lense in which the light will slow down. As the light enters the glass the very first part of the ray will slow down alowing other parts to catch up. This makes the light bend towards the normal (perpendicular to side of glass). As the light leaves the glass the oposite occurs. The light that leaves the glass goes faster leaving other parts behind and bending it away form the normal. How much the light bends depends on the shape of the lense the material of the lense and the angle that the light comes in at.
What material lets light through but you can't see through?
Frosted glass is a material that allows light to pass through but diffuses it so that objects on the other side cannot be clearly seen. This effect is achieved by sandblasting or acid etching the glass surface to create a rough texture that scatters light.
What color or colors of light are transmitted by a piece of yellow glass?
Red and green light. Yellow glass transmits yellow light. Yellow light is a combination of red and green light. Therefore yellow glass transmits red and green light and absorbs blue light.
