If a candle is in a dark room and a mirror is placed in the room how much light is now in the room?
This is tricky but you will only have one and a half of the light in the room because the mirror can not reflect the light in fully sperical directions. A little tricky but there will be the same amount of light, with the only light source the candle, you cannot double it. the mirror is only reflecting the light, There is only a certain amount of light from the candle in the room, this means this is the only amount of light that there will ever be. There is nothing in the know world that can create something out of nothing. Just like thing can absorbe light or reflect it mirrors mostly reflect it. The simple answer is that the same amount of light will be in the room in the end.
Why is a satellite used to reflect light?
Because it is like a mirror and it can be used to reflect light
How does light reflect off a smooth surface like a mirror?
A regular reflection.
What is light rays obey the law of reflection which states that?
what is the parallel light rays reflect off each mirror below looks like with a ruler
What is meaning of light reflected from the surface of the moon?
What is meaning of light reflected from the surface of the moon ? Answer:The sun reflects its light on to the moon then the moon reflects the light from the sun to earth it is like have a mirror if you have 3 or more mirror and you shine the mirror into the suns light it will reflect to the other mirrors. which is how we get day and night
What are the characteristics of a mirror?
A mirror is clear,glass like and can reflect off an image
What is the difference between a mirror and a crystal?
A mirror tells you that it's a surface that will reflect light. A crystal tells you that the atoms of the material are arranged in a very strict lattice like order.
What do you call the ray that leaves the mirror?
A mirror and most surfaces reflect lots of things like light and heat. If you shine sunlight on a mirror it will reflect sunlight. Sunlight is the radiation which the sun gives off, within sunlight there are many different wave lengths with include infa-red and ultra-violet. In short a mirror with reflect certain wave-lengths, to understand better it is best you research on waves.
What is a non reflective surface?
A lot of surfaces are non-reflective if viewed on a small scale, bricks for example. They do not reflect an image like a mirror does. However, almost all surfaces reflect light (otherwise you wouldn't be able to see them). It's more to do with colour really. A black surface does not reflect light. It absorbs it, unless it's very shiny like a car body. in which case it reflects it like a mirror.
True or false-most paper does not reflect light very well because its sureface is somewhat rough?
Well, yes, if by "reflect very well" you mean "reflect like a mirror". White paper can have a fairly high albedo, though - referring to the percentage of light reflected.
At what angle does a light ray reflect off a mirror?
It reflects at like 45 degrees I think. No, it reflects off at the same angle it hits the mirror. If the light wave hits the mirror at a 30o angle on the left side, it will reflect off at a 30o angle on the right side. Scientists usually measure these angles from an imaginary line perpendicular to the mirror at the point where the light wave hits the reflecting surface; sounds awkward, but it makes the math easier.
What is the meaning of reflection in modulo art?
reflect like in the mirror
