Light enters the eye through the cornea, passes through the pupil, and is focused by the lens onto the retina. The retina contains light-sensitive cells called photoreceptors (rods and cones) that convert light into electrical signals. These signals are then sent to the brain through the optic nerve for processing. Some light is absorbed by pigments in the eye, while the rest is reflected back out, giving the eye its color.
What else can I help you with?
When light strikes to an object can it be reflected or absorbed?
Yes, when light strikes an object, it can either be reflected (bounced off) or absorbed (taken in by the object). The amount of light that is reflected or absorbed depends on the properties of the object, such as its color and material.
What is formed when light strikes an opaque materials?
When light strikes an opaque material, the light is absorbed or reflected by the material. This can cause the material to heat up if the light is absorbed, or create glare if the light is reflected.
When you see color is it being reflected or absorbed?
Light that's absorbed is not there any more for anyone to see. You 'see' an object by the light that's reflected from it. If you see color, then it's the color that's NOT absorbed.
Can light reflect and absorb and transmit all at the same time?
Yes, light can be reflected, absorbed, and transmitted simultaneously. When light encounters a medium, some of it is reflected back, some is absorbed by the medium, and some is transmitted through it. The amount of light that is reflected, absorbed, and transmitted depends on the properties of the material it interacts with.
What colors of light are reflected and absorbed?
An object appears a certain color because it reflects certain wavelengths of light and absorbs others. The color of light that is reflected is the color that we perceive, while the colors that are absorbed are not reflected back to our eyes.
WHAT HAPPEN WHEN LIGHT FALLS ON A CAN?
More or less the same as when the light falls anywhere else. Part of the light will be reflected, part of it will be absorbed. Light will usually not pass through a can, which is not transparent for visible light.
When light strikes to an object can it be reflected or absorbed?
Yes, when light strikes an object, it can either be reflected (bounced off) or absorbed (taken in by the object). The amount of light that is reflected or absorbed depends on the properties of the object, such as its color and material.
Why are everyones pupil black?
The choroid layer in the eye has a black color pigment on it. Also, the light entering the eye is not reflected because light rays entering the pupil are absorbed by the tissues inside the eye.
How does visible light interact with an object?
Visible light interacts with an object by either being absorbed, transmitted, or reflected. The color of the object is determined by the wavelengths of light that are reflected off its surface. When light is absorbed, it can cause the object to heat up. Transmitted light passes through the object without being absorbed or reflected.
What happens when light hits an object it cannot pass through?
If the light can not pass through a object it is opaque . The light will reflect or be absorbed by the object.
Is red light reflected or absorbed by an object if the object appeares to your eyes?
Reflected
What happens when the pigment reflects red light?
Answer #1:red light is reflected, all others are absorbed===========================Answer #2:The pigment, and anything it is shmeared on, appears red to the eye.
When not all of the light is reflected is the light called absorbed?
Yes.Yes.Yes.Yes.
What is formed when light strikes an opaque materials?
When light strikes an opaque material, the light is absorbed or reflected by the material. This can cause the material to heat up if the light is absorbed, or create glare if the light is reflected.
