Does a car traveling along a curved path at constant speed have a constant momentum?
No, the magnitude will be constant, but the direction of the momentum will change to reflect the direction of the velocity.
Do the light rays reflect in many directions or few on a rough surface?
They are reflected in many directions.
Why don't most paper reflect light?
As most paper's surface is rough at microscopic levels therefore they do reflect the light but the light reflected y them is scattered over a large surface due to its rough texture.......As they do not reflect light in a particular direction like mirrors therefore they seems not to reflect the light.....
An echo for example wave interaction?
The reflection of wave happens due to the echoes bouncing off the organs to reflect an image of the electrical impulses made.
What direction does a plane mirror reflect light when the beam is aimed perpendicular to it?
Back up the indecent beam path.
What do you call it when a light hit a suface a changes direction?
reflect
How do mirrors and lenses compare in their interaction with light?
Mirrors reflect light; lenses do not. APEX 0-0
What is The interaction of light with a surface is called?
The interaction of light beams with a surface is called regular reflection when the light beams reflect off all points of the surface at the same angle. When the light beams hit the surface and reflect off in different angles it is called diffuse reflection.
Why infinite images formed if a candle is placed between two parallel mirrors?
Because - if the mirrors are exactly parallel - they will reflect each others image indefinitely.
What is the shape of a concave mirror?
A concave mirror has a surface that curves inward like a bowl. When parallel light rays approach a curved surface and strike at different points on the curve, each ray will reflect at a slightly different direction :) Hope this answers your question

Rays traveling parallel to the principal axis of a concave mirror will reflect out through the mirror's focus.?
true

No, the magnitude will be constant, but the direction of the momentum will change to reflect the direction of the velocity.

They are reflected in many directions.
An astronomical instrument used to reflect the light of the sun in a constant direction?
It's called an "heliostat".
How does drama reflect real life and help us understand ourselves?
when you act it serves as an interaction between the person acting and the audience watching
