    You have read that EM waves can interact with a material medium in

    the same ways that mechanical waves do. Three forms of interaction

    play an especially important role in how people see light. One form is

    reflection. Most things are visible because they reflect light. The two

    other forms of interaction are transmission and absorption.

    Transmission is the passage of an EM wave

    through a medium. If the light reflected from objects did not pass

    through the air, windows, or most of the eye, we could not see the

    objects. Absorption is the disappearance of an

    EM wave into the medium. Absorption affects how things look, because

    it limits the light available to be reflected or transmitted.
