How do things absorb uv rays and reflect them as visible light?
When materials absorb ultraviolet (UV) rays, some of the energy is used to excite electrons in the atoms of the material to higher energy levels. As these electrons return to their ground states, they emit energy in the form of visible light. This phenomenon is known as fluorescence.
What things emit and what things Reflect?
Things that emit include light bulbs, the sun, and fire, which release energy in the form of light and heat. Things that reflect include mirrors, glass windows, and shiny surfaces, which bounce light off them without absorbing it.
How do you root hairs absorb water?
well the weird things in your things have some sort of things which help the other things to ,maybe help absorb the water things. Amen.
Opaque absorb or reflect light?
Glass reflects some of the light that hits it, absorbs some of the lightthat enters it, but 'transmits' most of the light that hits it. That's whyyou can see things through it pretty easily.
What are some examples of things that reflect?
mirrors
What gives things their color?
Objects get their color from the way they absorb and reflect light. Different materials absorb and reflect different wavelengths of light, which our eyes perceive as color.
Do all colors absorb heat?
No, not all colors absorb heat to the same extent. Dark colors tend to absorb more heat than light colors because they absorb more light energy. Light colors reflect more light and heat energy, which is why they are often used in hot climates to keep things cooler.
What 3 things can the ocean do with heat?
absorb, reflect,and let it bounce off

How do opaque objects reduce the transfer of heat by radiation?
because black things absorb more heat and white things reflect it
Do invisible things reflect light?
No, invisible things do not reflect light because they do not interact with photons in the visible spectrum. Invisibility is often achieved through techniques like bending light around an object or using materials that do not reflect or absorb light in the visible range.
Why do soft things absorb sound?
Soft things absorb sound because their porous and fibrous structure allows them to trap sound waves, which then get converted into heat energy. The material's ability to dissipate and scatter the sound waves rather than reflect them helps reduce reverberation and echo in a space, leading to a quieter environment.
What three things can happen when heat energy is transferred to matter by radiation?
The matter can absorb the radiant energy, causing its temperature to increase. The matter can reflect the radiant energy, bouncing it off without absorbing it. The matter can transmit the radiant energy, allowing it to pass through without being absorbed or reflected.
How do things absorb?
Things absorb when they take in and retain another substance or energy from their surroundings. This absorption process typically involves the transfer of molecules, particles, or energy into the material or object, leading to a change in its properties or state.
Why do things have color?
Things have color because of the way they interact with light. Different materials absorb and reflect light in different ways, which creates the colors we see.
How is light capture by living things?
"Molecules, when struck by a wave or photon of light, reflect some of its energy back out, or it can absorb the energy, and thus enter into a higher energy or excited state. Each molecule absorbs or reflects its own characteristic wavelengths of light. Molecules that have evolved to absorb wavelengths in the visible region of the spectrum very well are called pigments."(http://202.114.65.51/fzjx/wsw/website/mit/ps/physics.html)
Does light refract more when going through a thicker substance?
well three things happen when light strikes an object Refract Reflect absorb
