Question

Which of the following type of bodies form sharp shadows when placed in the path of light?

• A. Transparent
• B. Translucent
• C. Both A and B
• D. Opaque

Answer 1

The correct option is D Opaque

Transparent bodies allow light to pass through them whereas translucent bodies allow some light to pass through them.

Opaque bodies do not allow light to pass through them when placed in the path of light, therefore the sharp shadows are formed by the opaque bodies.

Hence, option D is correct.
