Question

Opaque objects:

• A. reflect most of the light falling on them
• B. transmit most of the light falling on them
• C. absorb most of the light falling on them
• D. both $A$ and $C$

Answer 1

The correct option is A reflect most of the light falling on them

1) An opaque object is neither transparent (allowing all light to pass through) nor translucent (allowing some light to pass through).

2) When light strikes an interface between two substances, in general, some may be reflected, some absorbed, some scattered, and the rest transmitted (also see refraction).
