Question

classify various materials based on optical density​

Answer 1

The physical density of a material refers to the mass/volume ratio. ... The more optically dense that a material is, the slower that a wave will move through the material. One indicator of the optical density of a material is the index of refraction value of the material.

Answer 2

Answer:

Material can be Transparent, Transclusent Or Opaque based on Optical Density.

Optical density is a term used to denote the propagation on light waves through a material. A higher optical density indicates how much slower the waves travels through the object. The refractive index of that material is an indicator of its Optical Density.

• Diamond is the material which has the maximum optical density.
• Air has the lowest density.

Opaque- Does not allow the light to pass through.

Transclucent- Partially allows light to pass through.

Transparent- Allows light to pass through.
