What does the word translucent mean in science?
In science, translucent describes a material that allows some light to pass through, but scatters it in different directions, making objects on the other side appear blurry or hazy. This is in contrast to transparent materials, which allow light to pass through with minimal scattering.
Clear glass water and air are examples of what kind of material?
Transparent materials.
What does semi transparent mean?
Semi-transparent refers to an object or material that allows some light to pass through but is not completely transparent, meaning it is partially see-through or opaque. This property is often used in design to create effects like soft lighting or layered visuals.
If something is transparent what does that mean?
Transparent means that light passes through it, and therefore you can see through it. Examples are glass and water. Metaphorically, something transparent (e.g. a ruse, a scheme) is a disguised activity that is easily "seen through," i.e. apparent in its aims.
What is a curved piece of glass or other transparent material that is used to retract light?
A lens is a curved piece of glass or transparent material that is designed to refract (bend) light rays, focusing them to create an image. Lenses are commonly used in cameras, eyeglasses, microscopes, and telescopes.
