the light is transmitted through the transparent material into the water which is transmitted untill it hits soething opaque amd the light is absorbed into that.

What happens when the light is directed at a transparent material?

When light is directed at a transparent material, such as glass or water, it passes through the material with little to no obstruction. The material may refract or bend the light, but it generally allows the light to transmit through it, making the material appear clear or see-through.


What happens when light strikes translucent material a transparent material and opaque material?

When light strikes a translucent material, it passes through but scatters in different directions, creating a diffused or blurred effect. In contrast, light passes through a transparent material with minimal scattering, allowing objects to be seen clearly on the other side. For an opaque material, light is absorbed or reflected, preventing it from passing through, resulting in no visibility on the other side.


Is the material translucent if light is diffused as it passes through it?

Yes, if light is diffused as it passes through a material, it is likely to be translucent, meaning that some light can pass through but it is not completely transparent.


Does a translucent material scatter light waves as the pass through it?

Translucent (sort of milky) materials scatter light in a random fashion as the light passes through them. There can be some scattering even in transparent materials (few materials are totally transparent!)


What is light called when it passes through transparent matter?

When light passes through transparent matter, such as air or glass, it is referred to as transmission. The material allows the light to travel through without significant absorption or reflection.

Why air is a transparent material?

You cannot see air. Light passes through it.

A material through which nearly all light passes is?

A material through which nearly all light passes is called a transparent material.


What happens when light hits a transparent material?

Even though you can see through a material..i.e. it is transparent...it may have color and a physicist will want to know this information. What type of light is hitting this material is important to include in your question as well as the type of transparent material. What type of light? (and the strength ...source would be great) What type of material? What color is the material? Answer: It allows light to pass through a material


Does transparent reflect light?

No, transparent materials allow light to pass through them without being reflected. However, some light may be refracted or scattered as it passes through a transparent material.


When all light passes through a material what is it called?

When all light passes through a material, it is called transparent. This means that the material allows light to pass through with little or no distortion, making objects on the other side visible.


What is a triangular shaped transparent object that refracts light as it passes through it?

A prism. It can be made of glass, crystal, or other hard clear material.
