Light can be blocked by other objects when the material of the object absorbs or scatters the light waves. This absorption or scattering prevents the light waves from passing through the object, causing a shadow to be cast on the other side. The degree to which light is blocked depends on the opacity and thickness of the object.

What objects block light?
Objects such as walls, doors, and curtains can block light, while transparent or translucent objects like glass or plastic allow light to pass through. Light is also blocked by opaque objects that are thick enough to prevent light from passing through, such as metal sheets or concrete walls.
When light rays are blocked by an object you can see the objects what?
When light rays are blocked by an object, shadows are created, making the object visible due to the absence of light. The object appears as a silhouette where light is unable to pass through, resulting in a contrast between the lit and shadowed areas. This phenomenon helps us perceive the shape, size, and position of the object blocking the light.
You are able to see objects around us because of what?
We are able to see objects around us due to the light that is reflected off of those objects and enters our eyes. This light stimulates the cells in our retina, which then send signals to our brain for processing, allowing us to interpret and perceive the objects in our environment.
What is the difference between light and shadow?
light is a form of energy an object which has its own light is called a source of light where as shadow is the picture of a body formed when light is blocked by the opaque bodies.
How do you experiment what happens when light is shone on other objects?
To experiment with the effects of light on objects, you can use a light source such as a flashlight or lamp and shine it on different objects under various conditions. Observe how the objects reflect, absorb, or transmit light, and take note of any changes in appearance or color. You can also try using different types of light sources or altering the intensity and angle of the light to see how it impacts the objects.

Is light similar to a shadow?
No, light and shadow are not similar. Light is electromagnetic radiation that illuminates objects and creates shadows when it is blocked by an object. Shadow is the area where light is blocked by an object, resulting in a darker area behind the object.
What is light blocked by?
Light is blocked by light form

Why is it the entire universe isn't blocked from our view?
Perhaps a better question is "why would it be?" Bright objects are the way they are because they emit light (and other electromagnetic energy). We are not living in a cosmic fog, so light reaches earth and we can see stuff. Isn't that great?!
How does creates shades?
Shades are created when an object blocks light from a source, casting a shadow. This can happen with opaque objects that do not allow light to pass through them, creating a dark area behind them where the light is blocked. Shades are also created when objects absorb or reflect light in a way that creates areas of darkness.

What is illuminate light?
collects light from other objects like the moon.
Why are you able to see objects around us?
I think this is basic science. The light from its source is reflected by the objects into our eyes. Light travels in a straight line therefore, when its path is blocked, it will change directions.
Give an experiment to prove that light travels in a straight line?
Place objects in the path of a beam of light in a dark room. If the beam is blocked by the objects, light is not traveling in a straight line. However, if the objects cast distinct shadows with sharp edges, it demonstrates that light does travel in a straight line.
