Identify which of the following materials is translucent:

Options

Option A

A clear glass window pane.

Option B

A wooden door.

Option C is correct

A sheet of frosted glass.

Option D

An iron sheet.

Explanation

Translucent materials allow some light to pass through but scatter it, making objects on the other side appear blurry. A sheet of frosted glass is a classic example of a translucent material. A clear glass window pane is transparent, allowing light to pass completely for clear vision. Both a wooden door and an iron sheet are opaque, meaning they completely block the passage of light.
