Question

What happens when a light wave hits a translucent object, in terms of energy?

1) some of the energy is transmitted, whilst the rest is absorbed and reflected
2) most of the energy is transmitted
3) all energy is reflected
4) all energy absorbed

Answer 1

d

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

1) some of the energy is transmitted, whilst the rest is absorbed and reflected

Step-by-step explanation:

"When light strikes translucent materials, only some of the light passes through them. The light does not pass directly through the materials. ... Opaque objects block light from traveling through them. Most of the light is either reflected by the object or absorbed and converted to thermal energy."
