What is the reflection of light from a rough surface called?
Diffused reflection.
What occurs when light hits a irregular surface?
The light will be absorbed and reflected unevenly.
The bouncing of light from a surface?
Reflection.
What is bouncing of light from a surface?
When light bounces off a surface, that is called reflection.
What kind of reflection occurs when light hits an irregular surface?
diffuse reflection
What do you call the reflection of light from a rough surface?
Reflection of light from a rough surface is known as "Diffused" or "Irregular" reflection, because the light rays are barely seen after the reflection of light from a rough surface.
Differentiate regular reflection from diffuse reflection?
Regular Reflection= Happens when light reflects off a smooth surface. Diffuse Reflection= Happens when light reflects off a rough surface. Reflection= The bouncing of waves, off a surface or and object

What is reflection and refraction of light?
Reflectivity isn't a property of light, it's a property of the surface that reflects the light. It is the proportion of the energy in an incoming light beam which when it hits the surface is reflected rather than absorbed.
The bouncing of light from a surface?
Reflection.
What is bouncing of light from a surface?
When light bounces off a surface, that is called reflection.
When light bounces off a surface the surface is?
Regular reflection.
What kind of reflection occurs when light hits an irregular surface?
diffuse reflection
What is the difference between a specular and a diffuse reflection?
Specular reflection is when light rays reflect off a surface uniformly in a single direction, like a mirror. Diffuse reflection is when light rays reflect off a surface in many different directions, like a matte surface. Specular reflection creates a clear image, while diffuse reflection scatters light in all directions.
What is the science behind a reflection?
Like in a mirror? A reflection in terms of light is the interaction of electromagnetic waves (light) with electrons at the surface of the reflecting material. Reflections also occur with other types of waves, such as sound or waves on water. Whenever wave energy makes contact with a material surface, it is either reflected, absorbed or transmitted through the material.
One difference between reflection and refraction of light waves is that?
reflection is when light its something like a mirror and refraction is light going through something solid that is not like a mirror when light falls on a surface and bounces back, it is reflection and when light is absorbed by the surface or passes through the surface but does not bounces back, it is refraction.
