No, they are not. An opaque object lets no light through at all. Marble counter tops, pieces of plywood or wallboard, sheet metals are examples of things that are opaque. Clouds are translucent. You cannot see any detail through them, but you can see that light is passing through.
What else can I help you with?
How would your lives be changed if clouds were opaque?
We would not have light Because when light reflects transparent and transculent it goes through but opaque doesnt
Which planet has an opaque atmosphere?
Venus has an opaque atmosphere due to thick clouds of sulfuric acid that prevent us from seeing its surface in visible light. These clouds trap heat and contribute to Venus having one of the hottest planetary surfaces in our solar system.
Is the sky opaque?
No. The atmosphere is transparent, which is why you can see the stars and moon at night. During the day the light from the stars is drowned out by scattered light from the sun. Clouds in the sky are translucent.
What do you need in order to see a shadow?
We need an source of light, an opaque object blocking the path of light, a screen behind the opaque object.
What happens to light energy when it is absorbed by an opaque object?
Since the object appears violet to your eye, it must be that violet light is the wavelength most efficiently reflected ... least efficiently absorbed ... by the object. To a greater or lesser degree, all wavelengths that are not reflected from the object are absorbed by it.

Are white clouds transparent opaque or translucent?
White clouds are translucent, which means light can pass through them but they scatter the light in the process. This is what gives clouds their fluffy, white appearance.
Is a cloud opaque?
Clouds are not opaque; they are actually translucent. This means that they allow some light to pass through but scatter and reflect most of it. Clouds appear white because sunlight is scattered by water droplets or ice crystals in the cloud.

What word describes a materail that does not let light through?
A material that will not allow the transmission of light is called an opaque material.
When light is bounced off an object it cannot pass through it is?
There are many objects that no light can pass through, although of course, it depends on what type of light you're talking about. The name of the type of object that visible light cannot pass through is called opaque.
Matter that does not transmit any light is what?
Opaque Materials, such as wood or steel, do not transmit light, accept in the case of a few Physicists, today, claiming that they have, in fact, transmitted light rays through different "holes" in different kinds of opaque materials.
What is a substance that dose not transmit light?
An opaque object does not reflect light. Opaque objects absorb light.
What is the word for not letting light though?
Opaque.
Does opaque light transmiss?
No, opaque objects do not transmit light. They absorb or reflect light, making them not transparent or translucent.
Can opaque transmit any light?
No, opaque materials do not transmit any light because they do not allow light to pass through them. Light is either absorbed or reflected by opaque materials, resulting in little to no transmission of light.
Is air opaque?
No, air is not opaque. It is transparent, allowing light to pass through it easily. Opaque materials do not allow light to pass through them.
