What term used to describe how light is reflected from a minerals surface is?
Surface reflection is either specular or diffuse.
What are 3 examples of light being reflected?
- light reflected from a window- light reflected from a mirror- light reflected from snow
What is the name of the ray that represents the light reflected by the surface.?
The ray that represents the light reflected by a surface is called the reflected ray.
How does light reflected?
Light can be reflected because it bounces off a surface at an angle.
What is reflected light from the water or light?
Water is a completely smooth surface and light is reflected from the sun.
Describe two ways that light can be reflected.?
Light can be reflected from a smooth surface through specular reflection, where the light rays are reflected at the same angle as they strike the surface. Light can also be reflected from a rough or irregular surface through diffuse reflection, where the light is scattered in various directions upon hitting the surface.
When light is reflected from a rough surface the reflected light does what while producing no image?
Bounces off
In what direction is the reflected light polarized?
Reflected light is polarized in the direction parallel to the reflecting surface.
When light is reflected from the surface it is?
When light is reflected from a surface, it bounces off the surface in a predictable manner called the law of reflection. The angle of incidence (incoming light) is equal to the angle of reflection (reflected light). This process allows us to see objects by the light they reflect into our eyes.
What will be the color reflected by a green surface when yellow light is incident on it?
No light will be reflected, since there is no incident green light to reflect. To a human observer, the surface will appear black.
How light reflects from a minerals's surface?
When light strikes the surface of a mineral, it can be reflected, refracted, or absorbed depending on the mineral's properties. The reflective properties are influenced by factors like crystal structure, surface roughness, and mineral composition, which determine how the light interacts with the mineral's surface and gives it its characteristic appearance.
How light is reflected the surface of a mineral?
