What happens to light when it falls on matter?

When light falls on matter, it can be absorbed, reflected, or transmitted. Absorption occurs when the light energy is taken in by the matter and converted into heat. Reflection occurs when the light bounces off the surface of the matter. Transmission occurs when the light passes through the matter without being absorbed or reflected.


Light that passes through matter is said to be transmitted?

Yes, when light passes through a material such as air, water, or glass without being absorbed or reflected, it is said to be transmitted. This process occurs when the material is transparent to the specific wavelengths of light being transmitted.


Blank is the bending of light rays that occurs when light passes through water?

Refraction.


What is light called when it passes through transparent matter?

When light passes through transparent matter, such as air or glass, it is referred to as transmission. The material allows the light to travel through without significant absorption or reflection.


Is light that passes through matter is said to be transmitted?

TRUE


Explain what happens to light when it is reflected refracted transmitted and absorbed by matter?

The last person who wrote this answer was a nimrod and a moron. Okay, so the answer to your question is that light is interacting with the object and/or matter by scattering and bouncing off of it/them.


An interactiom of light with matter that causes light to change direction?

Refraction, when the light passes through matter and is bent, or reflection, when the light bounces off.


Is light bending going through a prism an example of a reflection?

No, light bending through a prism is an example of refraction, not reflection. Refraction occurs when light passes through a medium with a different refractive index, causing the light to change direction. Reflection, on the other hand, occurs when light bounces off a surface.


What is the term used to describe light when it passes through matter it strikes?

The term used to describe light when it passes through matter it strikes is called transmission. This refers to the process of light passing through a material without being absorbed or reflected.


What is the change in direction of light when it passes from one kind of matter to another?

Light can not change direction by passing from one kind of mater to another. In fact, light can only pass through its own type of matter, which is when things like light can go through each other (and only a few types of matter can do that), but even in that case since it can go through, it can't be bent in angle by passing through.


What is it called when light bends as it passes through a material?

The bending of light as it passes through a material is called refraction. This occurs due to a change in speed of light as it moves from one medium to another, causing it to change direction.


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.
