The object appears to have the color of the light that it is worst at absorbing. That's
the color of which the most light remains to be scattered and reflected to your eye.

What determines the color of an opaque object?
the wavelength of the reflected light :)
What determines the color you see when you look at an opaque object?
light
What determines the color of an translucent object?
The colour of something is usually determined by the light waves reflected by it. We see what is reflected and not what is absorbed. This applies to opaque objects as well as translucent ones.
What is behind an opaque object?
Whatever you stick the opaque object in front of.
What is the different between clear and opaque?
you can see colour in opaque and there is more depth
How does the colour of the opaque object effect the colour of the shadow?
It does not.

What is the color of an opaque object determined by?
the wave length of light that is absorbed by the object determines color--White refects all eye perceptible colors where as black absorbes The colour of an opaque object is determined by the wavelength of the visible spectrum that it reflects. Light is made up of 7 colours, each having a specific wavelength range. Consider an object which appears green to the eye. Actually the object is not green in colour, it only reflects the waves pertaining to green wavelength range. All other wavelength are either transmitted or absorbed. The reflected wave reaches our retina and is perceived as that colour.

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 color is opaque?
It is not a colour
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?

Is negative film a translucent object?
Negative photographic film; both black and white, and colour; are both opaque before they are developed. After development, they are transparent, translucent, or opaque depending on the part of the photographic image.
