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.

What do you call a surface that feels like it will have high friction?
rough
What are the two models of light?
1. Particle Model: Invented by Sir Isaac Newton. He devised a simple particle model to explain the properties of light. He preferred to consider light as a stream of small particles or corpuscles. These particles were emitted in all directions by a light source, travelled in straight lines and carried energy. For example, in this model, the reflection of light was considered as being similar to a tennis ball rebounding from a wall with equal angles of incidence and reflection.2. Wave Model: In 1690, the Dutch physicist Christiaan Huygens published his Treatise on Light which developed the idea that light, like sound, travelled as a wave through a medium called the ether.Hope this helps :)
Is a candle a man made source of light?
No. A light bulb is.
What do you call the ability of water to climb upward in narrow tubes?
The adhesive forces of the polar water molecules to the glass surface, breaks the surface tension of the water and causes a capillary action up the sides of the tube.
What does light coloured poo mean?
It may mean you have something wrong with you gallbladder I would call your Dr.!
What do you call it when a rough surface scatters lights in a lot of different directions?
Diffuse reflection.
When light bounces of an object what is call?
it is the bouncing back of lights rays from surface. It is called reflection.
What do we call it when we change the direction light is moving?
Reflection: When light is bounced back off a surface in different or same direction Deflection: When light goes through a surface but its direction has changed from before it hit the surface
What is the bouncing back of a ray of light sound or heat when the ray hits the surface that it doesn't go through?
We call that "bouncing back" a reflection. Heat in the form of infrared (IR) radiation is like light, and light and sound are said to be reflected off surfaces that do not absorb them.
When light bounces back you call it?
The bouncing back of light is called Reflection
What do you call a surface that feels like it will have high friction?
rough
What is it called when you shine light onto a mirror to produce illumination elsewhere?
We can call this reflection, or illumination by reflection.

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.
What do you call the process where light is taken in when it strikes a surface?
I call that "absorption".
What do you call the bending of light that hits a surface?
Refraction
Is the sun's surface rough?
If you call a great big gassy ball of fire "Rough" then yes! Of coarse its not! You should look that sort of thing up on Google.com.
