the black absorbs it in
Answer
Any black object will reflect back light because of the friction particles that are on its surface, these will reflect back the light which shines upon it. It is said that black is the absence of color but we see it as the color black. The same goes for white light which is a combination of all colors but we see it as the color white. A black object will always reflect some light.

What happens to light when it hits a surface?
Three things can happen 1. Absorb the light, like black clothing 2. Bounce off the surface, like a mirror 3. Nearly all the light can go through, like a window
What occurs when light hits a irregular surface?
The light will be absorbed and reflected unevenly.
What happens when a ray of light hits metal?
It reflects off it. If the surface is smooth you get an orderly reflection, if rough then a random scatter of light.
What happens to get a black object?
When all light that hits an object is absorbed by it the object appears black. Similarly we see a wight object when all light that hits the object gets reflected off it!!!!!
What happens when rays of light hits a bumpy surface?
They may be absorbed and converted to heat or reflected in scattered fashion.
What happens when hits a black surface?
im assuming that u meant "what happens when LIGHT hits a black surface?" the reason for this is that the black surface ABSORBS the light, and so none of the light waves can be reflected back (which is what makes it look black)
What happens when sunlight hits a surface?
The sunlight will be absorbed by the surface.If the surface is a mirror,lesser light will be absorbed.More will be reflected. If the surface is black,more light will be absorbed.
What happens when sunlight hits a dark surface?
The sunlight will be absorbed by the surface.If the surface is a mirror,lesser light will be absorbed.More will be reflected. If the surface is black,more light will be absorbed.
What happens when light hits a rough surface?

What is it called when light hits a surface that it cannot pass through?
There is no scientific term for what happens when light hits an opaque object I'm afraid to say.
What happens when light rays hits a very smooth surface?
It is reflected at the same angle to the normal. The normal is a line perpendicular to the surface.

It reflects off it. If the surface is smooth you get an orderly reflection, if rough then a random scatter of light.
