Yes, materials that do not allow light to pass through are considered opaque. This could be due to the material's composition, density, or structure, which absorb or reflect light, preventing it from passing through. Examples include metals, wood, and thick fabrics.

What is it called when light hits an object and some light goes through and some dont what is it called when the light does not go through the block?

Transparent = light goes through the object (like glass). Translucent = some light goes through the block but there is sufficient diffusion to prevent perception of distinct images. Opaque = No light can get through the object.


Why dont you see a beam of light from a flashlight refract when it travels across a room?

Light from a flashlight is not bright enough to be easily refracted as it travels through air. In order for refraction to be noticeable, light must pass through a medium with a different refractive index, such as from air to water. Additionally, the bending of light is more pronounced at the interface between two different mediums, rather than through a homogenous medium like air in a room.


Is blood opaque?

Yes, blood is opaque because it absorbs and scatters light, making it difficult to see through it. Blood appears red because of the way light interacts with hemoglobin, the protein responsible for carrying oxygen in red blood cells.


Is light energy a form of conduction?

No, light energy is not a form of conduction. Conduction is the transfer of heat or electricity through a material or between materials that are in direct contact, while light energy is a form of electromagnetic radiation that can travel through a vacuum and does not require a medium for transmission.


How did light travel in a milky water?

Light in milky water can scatter due to the particles in suspension, causing it to disperse and appear diffused. This scattering can reduce the clarity and brightness of light passing through the milky water.
