Light Properties and Material Interaction

The video tutorial explores how different materials interact with light, focusing on blocking, absorption, and transmission. It begins with an introduction to light as electromagnetic radiation and its role in visibility. The tutorial then explains how opaque materials block light, creating shadows, and how some materials absorb light, converting it into energy through processes like photosynthesis. Finally, it discusses how transparent and translucent materials allow light to pass through. The lesson concludes with examples of materials in a classroom setting that demonstrate these properties.
