What did you observe when light strikes a clear plastic sheet? What was formed and why?..
Answers
When light strikes a plastic sheet,it formed a Transclucency because it transmitting light and also causing sufficient diffusion to prevent perception of distinct images is called Transclucency
Explanation:
1.Translucent objects allow some light to travel through them. Materials like frosted glass and some plastics are called translucent. When light strikes translucent materials, only some of the light passes through them. The light does not pass directly through the materials.
2.for example,frosted window glass is translucent but not transparent.
3.Materials that allow all light to pass through are called transparent. Materials that allow some light to pass through are called translucent and items that don't allow any light to pass through are called opaque.
- Plastic sheet is a translucent material.
- So when a light strikes a clear plastic sheet, only a portion of light travels through its materials.
- The materials of a plastic sheet do not allow direct light to pass through them.
- It frequently changes directions and disperses as it passes through.
- As a result, we can't see through it clearly.
- However, items on the other side of the sheet may appear blurry and hazy.
- Some ultraviolet rays can pass through the plastic sheet because it is semi-transparent.
- And since the light travels in straight lines, shadows are produced.
- Because light travels in straight lines, shadows are produced.
- This is because an opaque substance prevents light from passing through.
