A material that reflects or absorbs all of the light that strikes it is?
A material that reflects or absorbs any light that strikes it is opaque.Tranlucent or transparent materials allow some or all light to pass through.
What an object is made of and the color of light that strikes it determines the what?
The material an object is made of and the color of light it reflects can determine how hot an object gets when it is left out in the sun. Color and material both affect the amount of heat an object will absorb.
What occurs when light strikes a metal and electrons are released?
The electrons in the electron sea absorb and re-emit the light.
Do an opaque object reflects the light that it does not absorb?
true
Do transparent objects absorb most of the light that strikes them?
yes it does
What is a material that reflects or absorb all of the light that strikes it?
No material reflects all light. Silver is pretty close, which is why it is used for mirrors. As far as absorbing, porous black materials do the best job.

Which substance is one which absorbs or reflects any light that strikes it?
All substances absorb and reflect light to varying degrees. Some also transmit light.
The term embedability is most often used in reference to?
The ability of a bearing surface to absorb foreign material.
How colors absorb heat?
well,idk how but black absorbs it while white reflects it. (so darker colors absorb and lighter reflects it.)
Do an opaque object reflects the light that it does not absorb?
true
Why do some materials absorbe better then others?
The absorption of a material has a lot to do with the molecular structure and the "surface energy" of the constiuent particles. Also a material with great surface area (made up of fibers or porous) will absorb more as there is more surface to aid the uptake of liquid.
What occurs when light strikes a metal and electrons are released?
The electrons in the electron sea absorb and re-emit the light.
Do transparent objects absorb most of the light that strikes them?
yes it does
Would material absorb more heat?
If there was more heat to absorb than was already in the material.
How much light can the color white absorb?
White does not absorb light - it reflects all visible light waves, while black absorbs all visible light and reflects nothing.
