Why is radiation of heat larger in a black surface than a white surface?
A black surface absorbs the heat radiation and a white surface reflects the heat radiation
What is it called when light reflects off the surface of a metal?
i don't think that it has a special name , i think it just reflects the light . however if heat reflects on a shiny surface this is called reflective radiation. hope this helps *)
Why is white and shiny surface suitable for fridge-freezer?
White reflects heat,thereforereducing heat radiation to keep the fridge or freezer cool
Reflects a lot of light from its surface?
metals with these propeties reflects a lot of light from its surface
What color light does a yellow shirt reflect?
It reflects a radiation of b radiation which is a color green.

What is reflectivity of a surface called?
One term often used in Astronomy is the albedo. It refers to the percentage or fraction of incoming light that is reflected.

What is the correct definition of albedo?
The fraction of incident radiation reflected by a surface. -ie, how brightly something reflects a light. -usually referring to stars etc.
Why can gamma rays from objects in space not be detected on Earth's surface?
the earths atmosphere absorbs the radiation or reflects it i cant remember which i think it is a combination of both
Reflects a lot of light from its surface?
metals with these propeties reflects a lot of light from its surface
What reflects sun energy?
The ozone layer reflects the sun's radiation. these are harmful UV rays.
A shiny surface reflects less light than a matte surface?
A shiny surface reflects 'more' light than a matt surface.
How does a greenhouse gas work?
Long wave radiation emitted by the sun reflects off earth's surface and is absorbed by heat trapping gas in the atmosphere. Nitrogen and oxygen do NOT absorb infrared radiation, but CO2, CH4, and H2O DO trap heat.
What color light does a yellow shirt reflect?
It reflects a radiation of b radiation which is a color green.
What metals reflects electromagnetic radiation?
All of them. It is a property of metals.
