What is the function of vertebrarterial canal?
to allow the vertebral artery to pass through to the brain
Can ultraviolet light pass through objects?
Ultrapure quartz is one material that passes both the 254nm and 185nm frequencies of UV light developed by a mercury plasma tube, which itself is constructed using ultrapure quartz. If the quartz is not very pure, not much of the 184 nm frequency will get through. I think there are certain Teflons that will also pass UV light.
Is the earth opaque?
Yes, obviously, you can't see china from the US can you? opaque means not transparent or translucent; impenetrable to light; not allowing light to pass through.
What are the 3 different ways that light reacts to solid objects?
It reflects off of the object, and this is the light we see when we view opaque objects; it can be absorbedby the object, and we do not see this light; or the light can pass through the object in such a way that we can clearly 'see through' the object, such as transparent glass, or light can pass through the object and only appear as a glow, not an image, as is the case with some types of translucent plastic, frosted glass or other kinds of material.
When electricity pass through the bulb what happens to the filament?
It gets heated up and glows spreading the light
Why do different filters affect colour?
They allow different frequencies of light to pass through.
What word is used for materials that light can pass through?
Transparent materials allow light to freely pass through them. Translucent materials also allow light to pass through them, but change the colour of the light.
What is the difference between Opaque and Pale?
Opaque objects don't allow light to pass through. Pale is the abscence of colour.
What material does not allow light to pass through it?
Opaque materials do not allow light to pass through them.
What color of light does a red filter allow to pass through it?
Red. A primary filter allows only one colour through.
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 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
Blind people always seem to have the same kind of sunglasses so is there a name for the frame of these type of sunglasses?
I believe they are called "Noir" sunglasses. They allow only certain kinds light to pass thorugh because of some blind people's senstive eyes.
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.
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.
