Question

• A. Frosted glass
• B. Cardboard
• C. Mirror
• D. Clear water

Answer 1

The correct option is A

Frosted glass

An explanation for the correct option:

Option A: Frosted glass

1. The materials through which light can pass to some extent are called translucent materials.
2. We can't see clearly through them e.g. butter paper, frosted glass, etc.
3. So, option A is correct.

An explanation for the incorrect options:

Option B: Cardboard

1. The materials through which light cannot pass are called opaque objects.
2. We cannot see through opaque objects e.g. wood, rubber, milk, etc.
3. Light can't pass through cardboard. So it is opaque.
4. So, option B is incorrect.

Option C: Mirror

1. Light can't pass through the mirror. So mirror is an opaque object.
2. So, option C is incorrect.

Option D: Clearwater

1. The materials through which light can pass easily and completely are called transparent objects.
2. We can clearly see through transparent objects e.g. clear water, clear glass, air, etc.
3. So, option D is incorrect.

Therefore, option A is correct. Frosted glass is a translucent material.
