What happens to light if it is neither reflected nor refracted?
If light is neither reflected nor refracted, it will be absorbed by the object it encounters. This absorption of light energy can result in the object heating up.
How do the properties of a material affect the way light is refracted vs reflected?
The properties of a material, such as its density and refractive index, affect how light is refracted and reflected. When light passes through a material with a different density or refractive index, it can change direction (refraction) or bounce off the surface (reflection). The angle at which light enters the material also plays a role in how it is refracted or reflected.
When light travels through a pair of eyeglasses is it reflected or refracted?
Refracted. Light passing through is refracted, light bouncing off of is reflected.
What is the place at which rays of light meet or appear to meet after being reflected or refracted by a mirror or lens?
The point at which rays of light converge or appear to converge after being reflected or refracted by a mirror or lens is called the focal point.
What happens when light hits the surface of an object an angle?
When light hits the surface of an object at an angle, it can be reflected (bounced off), refracted (bent), or absorbed by the object. The amount of light that is reflected or refracted depends on the surface properties of the object, such as smoothness and transparency.
How will you compare prism to raindrops?
Light is refracted and reflected by a (glass) prism Light is refracted and reflected by a raindrop
When light goes through a camera lens is it reflected or refracted?
It would be refracted.
What happens to light if it is neither reflected nor refracted?
If light is neither reflected nor refracted, it will be absorbed by the object it encounters. This absorption of light energy can result in the object heating up.
When light is reflected or refracted it does what?
It bounces in a different direction
What word describes stopping light so that it is not reflected or refracted?
When light is stopped it is normally said that absorption has taken place. Opaque objects normally absorb light and thus it does not get reflected or refracted.
What will happen to light that are not absorb?
Light that is not absorbed is either reflected, refracted, or transmitted.
What is happening to light when it is being reflected?
The light bends. Depending on whether it is a concave or convex mirror, the light is either being refracted or reflected

When light travels through a pair of eyeglasses is it reflected or refracted?
Refracted. Light passing through is refracted, light bouncing off of is reflected.
What happens to light when its strikes an object?
The light waves can be reflected, absorbed, they can pass the object or be refracted.,
What kind of diagram is used to show how light is reflected or refracted in a diamond?
You may be describing a plan diagram for a raw stone, or a profile for a cut diamond. You can view such a diagram in the link, below. The diagram shows a round, brilliant diamond plan or profile.
What happens when white light strikes an object?
Depending on the object, it may be reflected, absorbed, refracted or internally reflected.
