Why Do Things Look Darker When They’re Wet?
October 18, 2024Ever wondered why things look darker when wet? NC State ECE professor and optics expert Michael Kudenov explains it’s due to total internal reflection, where water’s refractive index causes light to reflect back rather than pass through, making surfaces like wet concrete or damp clothing appear darker.
