No.

Otherwise, we would have seen new colours when light is reflected, since all the colours have different frequencies.

If light shines on a lemon what color rays will be reflected?

You will see Yellow. Yellow is the frequency that the surface reflects.


When the path of light is blocked by an object what happens?

If the object is opaque to the frequency of light impinging on it, some of the light will be reflected and the rest will be converted to heat in the opaque object.

How many colors are there in black?

There are no colors in black ! Colors are governed by the frequency (temperature) with which light is reflected from an object. White has the highest reflection frequency where as black does not reflect at all


Does frequency refer to the number of times light rays are reflected off an object?

No, the frequency of light is the number of times a complete 'wavelength' of light (ignoring the photon-like nature of light) passes a fixed point in a second. Generally measured in Hertz (Hz).

What are 3 examples of light being reflected?

- light reflected from a window- light reflected from a mirror- light reflected from snow


When light is reflected does the direction of the light wave change?

Yes, the light wave goes in the direction of the angle or reflection.


Why Do you see objects when light from them is reflected into your eyes?

Our eyes are specifically designed to detect light. The objects reflecting the light change the property of light, including its intensity and color; this allows us to make conclusions about the objects it was reflected from.Our eyes are specifically designed to detect light.
