Question

With the help of examples, distinguish between transparent, translucent and opaque objects.

Answer 1

1. Transparent objects are those objects which allow the light to pass through them completely. So the object is easily and clearly visible. E.g.: glass, water, etc.
2. Translucent objects are those objects that only allow the light to pass through them partially. So we are able to see things but less clearly. E.g.: greased paper, butter paper, wax paper, etc.
3. Opaque objects are those objects which do not allow light to pass through them. So we cannot see anything through them. E.g.:cardboard, plywood desk, etc.
