Translucent materials will allow light to pass through them, but usually it also scatters the light a little so that you can't see through it clearly like a transparent piece of glass.
What else can I help you with?
What happens to the colors of light when white light hits an object?
When white light hits an object, the object absorbs certain colors of light and reflects others. The colors that are reflected off the object are what we perceive as the color of the object.
What happens to the light when it hits a green object?
When light hits a green object, the object absorbs all the colors in the light spectrum except for green. Green is reflected off the object, which is why we perceive it as green. This reflection is what gives the object its color.
What happens to light when it hits a opaque object?
When light hits an opaque object, it is absorbed by the object's surface material, leading to a conversion of light energy into thermal energy. The opaque object does not transmit or reflect the light, causing the object to appear solid and non-translucent.
What happens when light energy hits an object?
When light energy hits an object, it can be absorbed, transmitted, reflected, or refracted. The way the light interacts with the object depends on the properties of the material the object is made of and the angle of incidence.
What happens to the color black when light hits it?
When light hits a black object, it is absorbed by the object's surface molecules rather than being reflected. This absorption of light energy causes the object to appear black to our eyes.
What happens when light hits the surface of an object an angle?
When light hits the surface of an object at an angle, it can be reflected (bounced off), refracted (bent), or absorbed by the object. The amount of light that is reflected or refracted depends on the surface properties of the object, such as smoothness and transparency.
What happens when white light hits a green object?
The green object absorbs all colors of light except green, which it reflects. When white light hits the green object, the green wavelengths are reflected into our eyes, making the object appear green.
What is it called when light hits a surface that it cannot pass through?
There is no scientific term for what happens when light hits an opaque object I'm afraid to say.
What happens when light hits an object that it cannot pass through?
When light hits an object that it cannot pass through, it undergoes reflection or absorption. Reflection occurs when light bounces off the object's surface, while absorption results in the light being absorbed by the object, converting energy into heat. The specific outcome depends on the properties of the object and the light itself.
What happens when white light hits an black object?
When white light hits a black object, all the colors in the white light spectrum are absorbed by the black object. This absorption of light energy causes the object to heat up, which is why black objects are often warmer than lighter-colored objects when exposed to sunlight.
What happens when you see an object as black?
When you see an object as black, it means that the object is absorbing most of the visible light that hits it, rather than reflecting it back to your eyes. This absorption of light results in the perception of the object as black.
What happens to light when it hits a coloured object?
When light hits a colored object, the wavelengths of light that are not absorbed by the object are reflected off the object's surface. The color we perceive is determined by the wavelengths of light that are reflected. For example, if an object absorbs all wavelengths except for red, we see the object as red.
