When light hits an object, it is either absorbed, reflected, or transmitted. The reflected light enters our eyes, where it is focused by the lens onto the retina, stimulating the cells that send signals to the brain. The brain then interprets these signals as images, allowing us to see the object.

What is formed when an object which does not allow light to pass through is in the path of light?
Depends on the surface of the object that the light is projected on. If the object has a polished surface like an inoxidable steel, or the object is a mirror, the light will produce a reflexion or the light comes back when it hits the mirror. Behind any object, is formed a shadow, since such object is not a glass.
What happens when an object absorbs all the light striking it?
it appears black
What is an object that transmit light or allows light to pass through it?
An object that transmits light or allows light to pass through it is called a transparent object. Examples of transparent objects include glass, water, and plastic. These objects allow light to travel through them with minimal distortion or absorption.
What happens to the light rays that are not reflected by and object?
Light rays that are not reflected by an object are either absorbed or transmitted through the object. Absorption occurs when the object's material absorbs some of the light energy, converting it into heat. Transmission happens when the light passes through the object without being reflected or absorbed.
What material that lets no light passes through?
An opaque material, such as metal or wood, does not allow any light to pass through it. This is because the material absorbs or reflects all incoming light, preventing it from transmitting through the object.

What happens to light when it travells through air and meets a transparant surface?
transparent surfaces, allow light to pass through, translucent surfaces allow SOME light to pass through and opaque surfaces DO NOT allow any light to pass through
What happens when light an object?
When light meets any of the object it interacts with it...the interaction can be reflection, refraction, absorption, polarisation,diffraction or interference depending upon the nature of the body with which it interacts.

What happens to visible light when an object appears blue?
Any other color of light is absorbed by the object. Only the blue bounces off of it. And if there's no blue in the light that's hitting it, then it appears black.
When light waves strikes a red object what happens to the light wave of all colors except red?
Basically three things can happen to light as it strikes an object. It can be reflected, absorbed, or it can pass through. For simplicity, assume the object is not transparent; in that case, any light that is not reflected is absorbed.
What objects are concider opaque?
Any object that doesn't appear allow light to pass through it is opaque. This includes you and a lead vest.

An opaque material, such as metal or wood, does not allow any light to pass through it. This is because the material absorbs or reflects all incoming light, preventing it from transmitting through the object.
What happens when all colors are absorbed?
When all colors are absorbed by an object, it appears black to our eyes. This is because black is the absence of any reflected light. The object absorbs all incoming light, allowing no colors to be reflected back.
What lets no light go through?
An opaque object or material does not allow any light to pass through it. This is because the structure of the material absorbs or reflects all incoming light, preventing it from passing through and creating a shadow on the other side.
