The radar cross section of an object is a measure of how well it reflects or scatters radar signals. A larger radar cross section means the object is more likely to be detected by radar systems.

What are objects that reflect scatter or transmit light said to be?

Objects that reflect light are said to be "reflective", objects that scatter light are said to be "diffusive", and objects that transmit light are said to be "transparent" or "translucent".


Why do different elements have different colors?

The color of objects is determined by their ability to reflect, absorb, scatter or transmit light and also by the anatomy& physiology of the eye and brain.


Do opaque objects transmit and reflect light?

Opaque objects do not transmit light, meaning light cannot pass through them. Instead, they reflect, absorb, or scatter light that strikes them, depending on their properties.


Why objects may not shine with their own light but are still visible?

They reflect and scatter visible light that comes from an external source.


What two terms describe objects from which light is provided?

Luminous objects are sources that emit light, while illuminated objects are those that reflect or scatter light from a different source.


Do all objects reflect light?

No, not all objects reflect light. Some objects absorb light, while others transmit it through or scatter it around. Objects appear to reflect light depending on their material composition and surface properties.


What happens when the objects in the way of the waves move?

When objects in the way of waves move, the waves can be blocked or absorbed by the objects. This can cause the waves to change direction, scatter, or reflect off the moving objects. The movement of the objects can also affect the amplitude and wavelength of the waves.


Why does shiny and light coloured objects reflect more light than rough and dark objects?

Shiny and light-colored objects reflect more light because they have a smooth surface that allows light to bounce off more directly. In contrast, rough and dark objects have uneven surfaces that scatter light in different directions, leading to less reflection and absorption of light.


What objects scatter light?

Any small slit will scatter light. Especially blue light.


What are three types of objects that affect light differently?

Transparent objects allow light to pass through without scattering, such as glass. Opaque objects absorb or reflect light, preventing it from passing through, like wood. Translucent objects scatter light as it passes through, leading to a diffused appearance, such as frosted glass.


When looking for a mathematical relationship between two variables use?

line graph or a scatter plot.


What is a homogeneous mixture whose particles are too small to reflect or scatter light?

A solution is a homogeneous mixture whose particles are too small to reflect or scatter light. A colloid is a heterogeneous mixture containing particles that are small enough to stay suspended but large enough to scatter light.
