Why is it that the light from a bright sheet of tin is very bright than the light from a corrugated sheet of tin?
A flat tin is brighter, because of its light, it is only on one direction and our eyes grab all the reflections. While corrugated tin, is not brighter as the other one, because of its reflected light diffuses in different directions and the amount of light that our eyes get are smaller.A flat tin is brighter, because of its light, it is only on one direction and our eyes grab all the reflections.

Is production of rainbow light reflected or refracted?
A reflected light would be light reflected by a mirror, and the light would remain unchanged. A reflected light of daylight is when white light is split into 'rainbow' colours.
Why does sunlight reflected off a mirror onto an already sunlit surface appear to be much brighter?
When sunlight hits the wall it is reflected back in all directions. Some of it hits your eye and some of it hits the mirror. The light that hits the mirror re-reflected back to its source and strikes the wall again. That light is then re-re-reflected of the surface and some of it reaches your eye. Basically, the light that would have normally gone elsewhere is given a second chance to reach your eye.
What is a term that means reflected light?
The light which enters is called the incident ray and the reflected light is called the reflected ray.
When we switch on the light electrical energy is converted into light energy. But when we switch off the light the produced light disappears. In which energy the produced light energy is converted to?
The produced disappears whether you switch it off or not - otherwise it would get brighter and brighter. In a closed room, the light would eventually be absorbed, and converted to heat. Outdoors, the light may go into outer space, going on and on and on... at a very high speed known as the "speed of light". In general, bet on heat. Light turns into heat.
How come its brighter outside when it snows?
Because of all the extra light being reflected - white reflects all colours of light rather than just a few as most colours do, meaning more light is reflected to your eyes and it appears to be brighter.
How much brighter is a Sun-like star than the reflected light from a planet orbiting around it?
a billion times brighter Have fun Mastering Astronomy!

How much brighter is a star than a lamp?
stars are planets and it shines because light is reflected so...depends on what kind of lamp ur talking about
What are 3 examples of light being reflected?
- light reflected from a window- light reflected from a mirror- light reflected from snow
Is lunar power a potential energy source?
While light is reflected from the moon, it is not a particularly large amount. Why use the moon when the sun is a thousand times brighter?
Why is it so bright outside after dark when it snows?
When it snows, the snowflakes reflect light, making the surroundings appear brighter even at night. The white color of snow also helps to bounce back more light, increasing visibility in the darkness. This phenomenon is known as "snow glow" or "reflected light."

Which is brighter the light coming from in or the light from the flashlight?
