What happens to the absorbed light energy when a light wave is absorbed by an object?
When a light wave is absorbed by an object, the absorbed light energy is converted into heat or other forms of energy within the object.
Can light be absorbed by certain materials?
Yes, light can be absorbed by certain materials.
Does light change direction when it is absorbed by a material And if it does then how?
Yes, when light is absorbed by a material, it is converted into other forms of energy such as heat. This conversion causes a change in the direction of light as it interacts with the particles in the material.
Light that is trapped by matter is said to be?
Absorbed or attenuated.
What happens to absorbed light?
Absorbed light is converted into other forms of energy, such as heat or chemical energy. In photosynthesis, absorbed light is used to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. In solar panels, absorbed light is converted into electricity.
What does absortion of light mean?
There are a few things that could be meant by absorption of light. It could mean that the light is absorbed.
What does it mean when something absorbs light?
it means where an object doesn't reflect because it has absorbed the light.
How would light behave if it was scattered absorbed reflected refracted separated and transmitted?
if we assume that you mean in that order the light would be gone once it was absorbed. (what was left of it once it was scattered anyway)
What happens to the absorbed light energy when a light wave is absorbed by an object?
When a light wave is absorbed by an object, the absorbed light energy is converted into heat or other forms of energy within the object.
What happens to light that strikes clear plastic?
A common technique in chemistry is spectroscopic analysis. This is where light is passed through a solution to determine its composition. The spectrometer will give a reading of absorbance or percent transmittance. The absorbance tells you how much light is absorbed, while the percent transmittance tells you what percentage of the light passed through and was not absorbed. If when you say clear you mean "colorless," all the light will pass through. The plastic is most likely not entirely colorless so only a small portion of the light will be absorbed, and it will have a high percent transmittance value.
What does the science term of 'degree of transparency to light' mean?
It means how much light gets through, as opposed to being absorbed.
Can light be absorbed by certain materials?
Yes, light can be absorbed by certain materials.
What is it called when absorbed light energy is released by matter?
Example for light energy is absorbed or released, Heat is released and absorbed, electrical energy absorbed or released...
Does light change direction when it is absorbed by a material And if it does then how?
Yes, when light is absorbed by a material, it is converted into other forms of energy such as heat. This conversion causes a change in the direction of light as it interacts with the particles in the material.
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.
Can visible light be absorbed in the darkroom?
Visible light can be absorbed anywhere.-- Anything that appears to have a color in sunlight has absorbed most ofthe visible light of all other colors.-- Anything that appears black in an otherwise light room has absorbed all ofthe visible light that fell on it.
Light that is trapped by matter is said to be?
Absorbed or attenuated.
