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.
What is it called when a light hits an object and bounces off?
Absorption.
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 😉
Is the law of reflection when light hits a surface at an angle it reflects at the left angle?
The law of reflection states that when an object bounces off a flat surface, the angle it at which it hits the surface will be equal to the angle at which it bounces away.
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 a mirror?
When light hits a mirror, it usually bounces off it.
When does reflection occur in a wave?
When the wave hits an object it reflects (bounces) off the object
How does light act when it hits different materials?
it bounces
How are waves reflected?
When an object hits through which it can not pass it bounces back
What happens when a ray of light hits a mirror?
The light hits the mirror and the light bounces off like a reflection
Light hits an object and passes through it. What is this called?
Transparency.
