What material does not allow light to pass through it?
Opaque materials do not allow light to pass through them.
What substance allows light to pass through it?
transparent
What substance doesn't allow electricity to pass through it?
a non-conductor
Why will light pass through a pair of polaroids when the axes are aligned but not when the axes are at right angles to each other?
A polaroid allows light to pass through it in only one plane. If both polaroids are aligned, they will allow light to pass through the same plane. Otherwise, each will allow light to pass through a different plane and the overall effect of the two polaroids is that it will not allow light to pass through them.
Does silk allow light to pass through?
YES
What material does not allow light to pass through it?
Opaque materials do not allow light to pass through them.
Why opaque materials do not allow light to pass through them?
They reflect or absorb light and thus do not allow light to pass through.
What type of material always lets light pass through it?
Transparent materials will always allow light to pass through, translucent materials will allow light to pass through as well but the light rays will be scattered. Opaque materials will not allow any light to pass through.
What is the difference between transparent and opaque substance?
transparent allow light to pass through and can see clearly through them and opaque has none of this ability
What substance does not allow electicity to pass through easily?
Rubber.
What happens to light when it travells through air and meets a transparant surface?
transparent surfaces, allow light to pass through, translucent surfaces allow SOME light to pass through and opaque surfaces DO NOT allow any light to pass through
What substance allows light to pass through it?
transparent
What substance doesn't allow electricity to pass through it?
a non-conductor
Why does mirror shines?
The reflection of light from surface of a mirror makes it shining. When the light passes through glass, it does not shine. When one side of this glass is covered by a substance that does not allow light to pass through, the light gets reflected and it shines.
Does not allow light to pass through?
is opaque
Why the suspension solution does not allow the light to pass through them?
suspension solution does not allow the light to pass through it because particles present in the solution are larger in the size so they absorb the light and they obstruct the path. thus the light does not pass through it.
