reflection.
This phenomenon is called reflection. When light rays hit a surface and bounce off, they create an image of the object.
When light waves do not bounce off an object, it is known as transmission. The light passes through the object, either partially or completely, allowing it to travel through and emerge on the other side.
An Object which reflects light is called an illuminous object. e.g) The Moon: Reflects off sunlight
The light rays that bounce back are called reflected light rays.
The process described is called reflection. Light waves bounce off an object's surface, altering their direction and creating what we perceive as the object's color and appearance.
no when a light hits an object the light will bounce back
The process you are referring to is called reflection. When light waves hit an object, some of the waves are absorbed and others bounce off the surface. These reflected waves determine the color and brightness of the object that we perceive.
When a light wave encounters another object, it can either be absorbed by the object, transmitted through it, or reflected off its surface. The reflection of light waves off an object is what causes them to bounce. The angle at which the light wave bounces off the object is determined by the law of reflection, where the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.
Reflection: Light can bounce off an object's surface. Transmission: Light can pass through an object. Absorption: Light can be absorbed by an object, converting it into other forms of energy.
Reflection is when light bounces off an object. If the surface is smooth and shiny, like glass, water or polished metal, the light will reflect at the same angle as it hit the surface. This is called specular reflection.
When light waves bounce off matter, it is called reflection. This happens when light waves hit a smooth and shiny surface, causing them to bounce off at the same angle they hit the surface.
When light rays bounce off a surface and back to your eyes, the process is called reflection. This allows you to see the object the light rays bounced off of. The angle at which the light rays are reflected depends on the angle at which they hit the surface, following the law of reflection.
