What colors are there when light bounces off a surface?
Any light that bounces off of the surface is the same color as it was when it hit the surface.
What do you call the bouncing of a waves from the surface?
reflectionWhen a wave bounces off a surface, it is said to have been reflected and the wave is called a reflection.reflectionWhen a wave bounces off a surface, it is said to have been reflected and the wave is called a reflection.
Light energy that is absorbed by Earth's surface is changed into what?
heat, unless it bounces off earth back into space
Does sound need to be reflected when it bounces off a shiny surface?
"Bounce off" means the same as "reflect" in this context.
What device gives off electrons when light shines on a metal surface?
There is the photoelectric effect, which is the process that emitts electrons from a metals surface when light of a certain frequency shines on the surface. In the metal, the nuclei are surrounded by electrons, so when the incoming electrons strike the surface, they pull apart from the electrons of the metal because of how like charges detract from each other.
What colors are there when light bounces off a surface?
Any light that bounces off of the surface is the same color as it was when it hit the surface.
When light bounces off a surface the surface is?
Regular reflection.
What type of reflection occurs when light bounces off of a SMOOTH surface such as a mirror?
Specular reflection occurs when light bounces off of a smooth surface such as a mirror!
What is bouncing of light from a surface?
When light bounces off a surface, that is called reflection.
What is it called when light bounces off an uneven surface?
when light 'bounces off' a surface, the technical term is that light is reflecting. if you're looking for the unscientific, descriptive word, it is scatter
When light bounces off of a shiny surface what is it said to be?
When light bounces of a shiny surface, such as a mirror, this is called specular reflection.(Diffuse reflection is when light bounces of a rough surface, such as a wall. You can tell it's a rough surface because you can't see your reflection.)
What is it called when a sound wave bounces off a surface?
Reflection
What can be used to view living samples?
a TEM (transmission Electron Microscope) shoots electrons through the specimen and shows internal features of the cella SEM (scanning electron microscope) Electrons bounce off of the surface of the specimen, and show a 3d image of the surface on the specimen.a STEM (scanning tunneling electron microscope) uses a needle like probe shoots electrons from the inside out, shows 3D surface image CAN be used on living specimens
When light bounces off an uneven surface the results?
Diffuse reflection
When light strikes a surface and bounces off?
Well I believe its Reflection
How does light behave when it reflects off a surface?
The light bounces of a surface and into your eye so you can see the object.
What process occur when light bounces off a smooth shiny surface?
Reflection
