Lambert's Law

Lambert's Law states that the amount of light absorbed or transmitted through a transparent material is directly proportional to the thickness of that material. In other words, the thicker the material, the less light passes through, following a predictable pattern. This relationship helps in understanding how substances like filters, glass, or liquids affect light transmission, important in fields like optics, chemistry, and photography. The law assumes the material is uniform and that no other factors, such as scattering or reflection, significantly influence the light's passage.
