What else can I help you with?
What three things can happen to a light wave when it strikes an object?
Light striking an object can be reflected, refracted, or absorbed. Light passing near an object can be diffracted. These are all the possible interactions.
What is an example of an object that light will pass through?
A glass of water, a window, a clear light bulb, tissue paper (really thin), a water bottle, anything with holes in it (obviously), crystal, diamond, various gems, etc. I hope they weren't too obvious answers!
Which mixture scatter a beam of light that passes through them-a phenomenon called the Tyndall effect?
Colloids scatter a beam of light that passes through them, exhibiting the Tyndall effect. This is due to the particles in colloids being large enough to obstruct the path of light and scatter it in all directions, making the beam visible.
Why isn't there white color in rainbow?
White light is actually a combination of all the colors of the rainbow. When white light passes through a prism, it separates into the different colors of the spectrum due to their different wavelengths. The colors we see in a rainbow are a result of this separation of white light.
Is white all of the colors mixed together?
In light mixture yes, white light is a combination of all colors, as can be seen when sunlight passes through a prism. However in paint and ink mixing white is created with pigments, titanium and oxide. Mixing all colors in painting will give you black.
Light that passes through an object is called?
Light usually passes through a transparent object. Similarly, light passes through the translucent objects but people cannot see through it.
Are most objects opaque?
No, not all objects are opaque. Some objects are transparent (light passes through easily), translucent (light passes through but is diffused), or opaque (blocks light from passing through). It depends on the material and structure of the object.
What material that lets no light passes through?
An opaque material, such as metal or wood, does not allow any light to pass through it. This is because the material absorbs or reflects all incoming light, preventing it from transmitting through the object.
Can all light pass through glass?
All light passes through glass that is transparent. But, if the glass is translucent (such as some bathroom windows or shower doors for privacy), only some light passes through, causing you to not see the object clearly.
Do all lenses refract the light passes through them?
yes
How is light affected by and translucent object?
When light passes through a translucent object, it scatters in all directions due to the irregularities in the material's surface and composition. This scattering results in the object appearing to glow as light is diffused evenly throughout the material. The overall effect is a soft, muted illumination rather than a clear, direct beam of light passing through.
What happens when white light passes through a yellow filter?
When white light passes through a yellow filter, only the yellow wavelengths of light are transmitted while all other wavelengths are absorbed. This causes the light that passes through to appear yellow in color.
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.
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.
What type of spectrum is produced when the light emitted directly from a hot dense object passes through a prism?
A continuous spectrum is produced when light emitted directly from a hot dense object passes through a prism. This spectrum shows a rainbow of colors with no distinct lines, indicating that all wavelengths of light are present. This type of spectrum is characteristic of a blackbody radiation emission.
What happens to light that passes through a prism?
the colors of light seperates to show all the colors of light.
Do all materials form shadows?
No, transparent materials such as glass do not form shadows as light passes through them. Shadows are formed when light is blocked by an object, causing a contrast between areas of illumination and darkness.
