Answer 1

When light waves passes straight through an object, it is called transmission.

Answer 2

Answer;

Transmission

Explanation;

• Light waves are types of waves that are electromagnetic waves, meaning they do not require material medium for transmission. Light is transmitted as a transverse wave such that the vibration of particles is perpendicular to the direction of wave motion.
• A material medium enables the transmission of a wave by the vibration of particles, atoms or molecules. The vibration of particles in a medium helps in the transmission of a wave such that energy is transferred from one point to another due to the disturbance caused by the wave.
