What else can I help you with?
A beam of light can be seen as it passe through a?
a beam of light can be seen if it passes through reflective material.
What happens when light strikes a translucent objects?
Light travels in straight lines and when the light travels through a translucent object light bounces off in all directions due to multiple reflections by the microscopic irregularities inside the material.
Light which bounces off the surface of an object is called?
When light changes direction as it passes through a boundary.
What happens when you shine a light through a fog what is this called and why does it happen?
The fog is called a colloidal solution. When light is shined through this colloidal solution, the light scatters in all direction because of the substance contained in this solution type.
When light passes into more dense material it bends away from the normal?
When traveling through a dense material, light doesn't necessarily bend at all.The bend occurs at the boundary between two different materials, and whetherit bends away from the normal or toward it depends on both of their densities.
What is matter which transmits light but also scatters the light as it passes through the matter?
The matter that transmits light but scatters it as it passes through is known as a translucent material. This type of material allows some light to pass through but causes it to deviate from its original path due to scattering. Examples of translucent materials include frosted glass, certain plastics, and human skin.
What type of material partly scatters light so objects cannot be seen clearly through it?
Frosted glass is a type of material that partly scatters light, making objects difficult to see clearly through it. This is due to its rough and textured surface which diffuses the light that passes through.
What is happens to light that strikes a translucent material?
Light that strikes a translucent material is partially absorbed and partially transmitted through the material. The material scatters the light as it passes through, resulting in a diffused appearance rather than a clear view.
What happens when light scatters?
It is redirected as it passes through a medium.
What happens to light when it scatters?
It is redirected as it passes through a medium
What happens when light strikes translucent material a transparent material and opaque material?
When light strikes a translucent material, it passes through but scatters in different directions, creating a diffused or blurred effect. In contrast, light passes through a transparent material with minimal scattering, allowing objects to be seen clearly on the other side. For an opaque material, light is absorbed or reflected, preventing it from passing through, resulting in no visibility on the other side.
Explain What happens when a beam of light passes through a colloidal solution and why?
When a beam of light passes through a colloidal solution, the light scatters off the suspended particles in the solution in all directions. This scattering of light is known as the Tyndall effect. The intensity of the scattered light depends on the size of the particles in the colloidal solution.
Does a translucent material scatter light waves as the pass through it?
Translucent (sort of milky) materials scatter light in a random fashion as the light passes through them. There can be some scattering even in transparent materials (few materials are totally transparent!)
If no light passes through this material it is?
opaque.
Is the material translucent if light is diffused as it passes through it?
Yes, if light is diffused as it passes through a material, it is likely to be translucent, meaning that some light can pass through but it is not completely transparent.
Light is refracted by?
when it passes through a new material
When all light passes through a material what is it called?
When all light passes through a material, it is called transparent. This means that the material allows light to pass through with little or no distortion, making objects on the other side visible.
