What word describes an object that allows some light through?
Transparent objects allow the complete passage of light. No light goes through an opaque object. Between these two extremes, objects are said to be translucent.
What word describes a materail that does not let light through?
A material that will not allow the transmission of light is called an opaque material.
How do objects block the passage of light through them?
It does not go through if it is opauqe
What is it called when light hits an object and some light goes through and some dont what is it called when the light does not go through the block?
Transparent = light goes through the object (like glass). Translucent = some light goes through the block but there is sufficient diffusion to prevent perception of distinct images. Opaque = No light can get through the object.
What happens to light when it travels through transparent object?
by transmission , transmission is when the passing of light or other form of energy through matter .
How is an opaque object different from a translucent object in terms of its ability to transmit light?
Opaque objects don't allow light to pass through them while translucent objects slow the passage of light but ultimately allow it to pass through.

Light that passes through an object is called?
Light usually passes through a transparent object. Similarly, light passes through the translucent objects but people cannot see through it.
What is light traveling though an object called?
If light travels through an object, it is still called light. If you want to specify, you might say "light travelling through an object".
What do you call an object which light can not pass through?
An object through which light cannot pass is known as opaque.

It does not go through if it is opauqe
What is it called when you smooth an object so it will move easily through liquid?
Smoothing an object's shape is called streamlining. It is used for improving passage through air as well as water.
when light passes stright through an object, that object is called?
When light passes through an object, we say it is transmitted. Transparent objects transmit a lot of light. basically it is called shadow

We can see through a glass how can we see through a glass?
When the light falls on an object , then it can be visible to our eyes , because of light . This is called reflection on an object . Hence , the statement : We can see through a glass has a question that : How will we see through a glass ? So whenever the object is in the path of the light the object is visible to us .
