What is a pice of clear material such as glass or plastic that bends light rays as they pass throughcan either focus or spread light rays?

The clear material that bends light rays as they pass through is called a lens. Lenses have the ability to either converge (focus) or diverge (spread) light rays depending on their shape and curvature. This property is essential in many optical devices such as cameras, microscopes, and eyeglasses.


What is define the property of letting light pass through something?

The property you are describing is transparency. Transparency refers to the ability of a material to allow light to pass through it without significant distortion. Materials like glass and clear plastic are examples of transparent substances.


When light hits on clear plastic?

When light hits clear plastic, the material allows the light to pass through without significant distortion or absorption. This results in the plastic appearing transparent, allowing objects behind or beneath it to be visible. The light may also be reflected or refracted, depending on the angles and surface characteristics of the plastic.


You can see an object clearly through what material?

You can see an object clearly through materials that are transparent or have low opacity, such as glass, clear plastic, or water. These materials allow light to pass through with minimal distortion, enabling a clear view of objects behind them.


What is a clear material that bends light rays?

1) any clear glass (with refractive index that is different from the region where the light is entering this clear glass) 2) any colour-less diamond. 3) any clear lens (concave, convex, etc) 4) (if you want to get really fancy ... :) ) any heavenly body with sufficient gravitational pull to "bend" the light ... though some would say light is still travelling in a straight line (and not actually bending) but is just happening to travel through warped space-time!! 5) Prism

If a solid cylinder of glass or clear plastic is placed above the words lead oxide and viewed from above as the lead appears inverted but the oxide does not?

The phenomenon you are describing is due to the difference in refractive indices of the glass or clear plastic and the surrounding air. When light passes from air into a denser medium like glass or plastic, it bends towards the normal line, and when it exits the medium, it bends away from the normal line. This bending of light causes the image to appear inverted when viewed through the glass or plastic cylinder. The lead oxide and lead likely have different refractive indices, causing the inversion effect to only occur for one of the words.
