translucency
When light that hits an object is taken in by the object, it is called absorption. The object absorbs some wavelengths of light, while others are reflected or transmitted.
No, the color of an object is the color of light that it reflects, not the color it absorbs. When light shines on an object, the object absorbs some colors and reflects others. The reflected colors are what we see.
When sunlight hits an object, the object absorbs some of that light energy and converts it into heat energy through a process called thermal conduction. The absorbed light energy causes the atoms in the object to vibrate more, increasing the object's temperature.
A material that reflects or absorbs any light that strikes it is opaque.Tranlucent or transparent materials allow some or all light to pass through.
The black object absorbs most of the light energy and converts it into heat, which is why black objects feel warmer in sunlight. The object also reflects some light, but because it absorbs most of the light across all visible wavelengths, it appears black to our eyes.

The light wave could be absorbed by the object, in which case its energy is converted to heat. The light wave could be reflected by the object. And the light wave could be transmitted by the object. ...
Black absorbs all colors. When visible light hits an object, the object absorbs some colors and reflects others. In the case of black objects, they absorb all colors of visible light, which is why they appear black.

An opaque object has a particular color because it absorbs certain wavelengths of light and reflects others. The reflected light is what we perceive as the object's color.
The object reflects the colour(s) you see and absorbs the rest. This is why black objects get hotter in the sun than white objects. The white 'colour' reflects much more energy (especially infra-red) whilst the black object absorbs more energy (especially infra-red).
An object appears black because it absorbs all the colors of the visible spectrum. If we idealize the object to make it perfectly absorptive, it absorbs all of the white light that strikes it and reflects none. In the real world, some light is always reflected. If the object appears black or dark gray, then it reflects small amounts of all colors of the spectrum.

What an object is made of and the color light strikes it determine the object's visible color. The object's material composition affects how it interacts with light, leading to the absorption and reflection of certain colors. When light strikes an object, the object absorbs some wavelengths of light and reflects others, which our eyes perceive as color.
