A regular reflection.
poopoos are yummy :]
it is because a mirror has a smooth surface.
I would have to say the prism
Light doesn't reflect light, nor does any other electromagnetic radiation.
Newton: " the angle of incidence equals the angle of refraction."
A prism refracts light, and a mirror reflects light.
Any smooth surface will reflect light. The better question is "How much light does each kind of smooth surface reflect?"
That surface would be called a "mirror".
shinny surfaces, example mirror.
Because it has a shiny & smooth surface which helps to reflect the light... Take an example of tree. A tree have a rough surface due to which light can be reflect. So All of this depends on the smoothness of surface.. :-)
Highly polished, shiny surfaces reflect light the best as they are REFLECTive. White or bright surfaces also reflect light well. Dull, Matt surfaces are the worst reflecters of light
Specular reflection occurs when light bounces off of a smooth surface such as a mirror!
amsw2. A mirror, provided it is smooth to below the wavelength of light, will reflect the light in the same way you can see a water wave be reflected from a wall.

a mirror... hehe ok ill stop messing around its a light getting reflected off a smooth surface most any smooth surface will reflect something the only thing that can over come a mirrors reflection is light itself and the angle at which it is reflected off (the secret to a one way mirror)
