When light bounces back at the same in which it hit an object?
When light hits an object/surface, it's either reflected, absorbed, or refracted. For light to bounce back, the reflection has to be "specular", like a mirror. So the light bounces back with the same(reflected) image. For light to be reflected back at the source. The light has to hit perpendicular to the surface, which is 90°.
When light hits an object?
Some of the light gets soaked in (absorbed) by the object, and some of it bounces off of the object and continues on in another direction. One factor that typically figures into the choice is the wavelength of the light.
Why A light wave travels in a straight path until it hits an object What can it do?
It can be absorbed or transmitted through an object it can bend sometimes it bounces back 😉
Light bounces off of objects causing a?
When light bounces off an object we say it is reflected just like how you see your reflection from the light that bounces off of a mirror.
What happens to light energy that is absorbed?
when a material absorbs light it can be reflected,scattered, absorbed, refracted,or it can pass through with no effect
Light energy that is absorbed by Earth's surface is changed into what?
heat, unless it bounces off earth back into space
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.

What happens to visible light when an object appears blue?
Any other color of light is absorbed by the object. Only the blue bounces off of it. And if there's no blue in the light that's hitting it, then it appears black.

Is this a true statement light from the Sun reflects or bounces off planets?
Yes. When light hits the plants, some of them are reflected and the rest absorbed to do work, in this case photosynthesis. This is the result of reflection.
If light bounces off A mineral it has?
If light bounces off a mineral it has luster.

A shoe that appears to be green would not absorb which color of light?
green. The green is the only color not absorbed and therefor bounces off the shoe creating a green appearance
