why does light go through glass but not through other forms of matter?
Light goes through glass because glass is a transparent material, meaning it allows light to pass through it without being scattered or absorbed.
Light passes through glass due to the unique structure of glass molecules. The molecules are arranged in a way that allows light to easily travel through them without being absorbed.
No, not all light passes through glass. The type of light that can pass through glass is called visible light, which is the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that is visible to the human eye.
Light doesn't bounce off of glass because the molecules in glass are tightly packed together, which does not allow for much reflection. Instead, light passes through the glass and continues on its path.
Light can travel through most types of glass, as long as the glass is transparent and does not have any impurities or defects that could block the light. Some types of glass, such as stained glass, may have areas that are not transparent and therefore do not allow light to pass through them.
