What do you need in order to see a shadow?
We need an source of light, an opaque object blocking the path of light, a screen behind the opaque object.
Is the sun opaque?
No. The body of the sun is ionized, thus opaque. In fact it takes about a million years for a photon to travel from the center to the surface.
Is translucent object casts a shadow?
The shadow is grey but not complete black as that of opaque object.
What three things are needed to cast a shadow?
Light, space, and an opaque object.
What does the photosphere of the sun do?
It is thought of as the surface of the sun. it is the outermost region where the sun is still opaque. This is where the photons from nuclear fusion escape the sun and make the 8 minute journey to earth.
What is behind an opaque object?
Whatever you stick the opaque object in front of.
When light is bounced off an object it cannot pass through it is?
There are many objects that no light can pass through, although of course, it depends on what type of light you're talking about. The name of the type of object that visible light cannot pass through is called opaque.
What is object that does not give out light and only reflect the sun?
You name it. Within the solar system, the sun is the onlyobject that produces its own light.There's no other object in the solar system that we can see unless the sun is shining on it.
When you cannot see through a substance is called?
If you can't see through an object clearly it is an opaque object.
Colors of opaque objects?
colors of opaque object
Is a book opaque object?
Yes. Opaque means you can not see any light through the object.
Can you see through a opaque object?
No, that is what opaque means. Light does not go through an opaque object. An object that is translucent will allow light through, but is opaque enough to keep you from seeing clearly through it (think about frosted glass used for bathroom windows). Transparent is "see through".
When a shadow is formed does the object have to be opaque?
when a shadow is formed there should be an opaque object the picture can be formed on the screen.
What shadow appears when light hits an opaque object?
An opaque shadow
Describe the difference between an opaque object and a transparent object?
The basic difference between an opaque and a transparent object is that we can see through the transparent objects while through the opaque objects, we cannot see.
Is a baseball an opaque object?
Yes. An opaque object is something that cannot be seen through. (Colored plastic is not opaque because it can be looked through and something behind it can be seen.)
When light hits something opaque we get a shadow so why do we have almost no shadow when the sun is high and there seems to be more light?
Because the Shadow is also dependent on the angle of the light source compared to the opaque object.
