What else can I help you with?
What is it called when light cannot pass through something?
When light cannot pass through an object, it is called opacity. This means that the material does not allow light to travel through it and blocks the transmission of light.
When a beam of light falls on a surface it is called?
When a beam of light falls on a surface, it is called reflection if it bounces off the surface, or refraction if it passes through the surface and changes direction.
What is it called if light cannot pass through a material?
This is called opacity. Materials that are opaque do not allow light to pass through them.
What is a star in which light cannot escape because of the immense gravitational pull at its surface called?
A star in which light cannot escape because of its immense gravitational pull at its surface is called a black hole.
What is bouncing back of light waves?
Reflection.
Can a ray refract on an opaque surface?
No, a ray cannot refract on an opaque surface because refraction occurs as light passes through a transparent or translucent medium, causing it to change direction. Opaque surfaces do not allow light to pass through, so refraction cannot occur on them.
A medium through which light cannot pass is called?
An optically opaque material.
What Materials through light can not pass are called?
Materials through which light cannot pass are called opaque materials. Examples include wood, metals, and thick plastics.
What is the place where light cannot get to because an OPEC object is stopping the light is called?
The place where light cannot reach because an object is blocking it is called a "shadow." In the context of an opaque object, such as a planet or a solid object, it prevents light from passing through, creating an area of darkness behind it. Shadows vary in size and intensity depending on the light source and the distance between the object and the surface where the shadow is cast.
What is an object that allows light to pass through but cannot be seen through?
One example of an object that allows light to pass through but cannot be seen through is frosted glass. Frosted glass has a textured surface that scatters light as it passes through, making it difficult to see objects on the other side clearly.
Light which bounces off the surface of an object is called?
When light changes direction as it passes through a boundary.
What object has such a strong surface gravity that light cannot escape?
A black hole
