Does light reflect off a rough surface?
It can reflect off a rough surface but the image is not clear ,causing an irregular reflection.
What is a very smooth surface able to clearly reflect light to form a virtual image?
That surface would be called a "mirror".
Why can you see you reflection in places other than the mirror?
Lots of objects can reflect an image. A mirror is simply a surface specially prepared to reflect much better than the average surface. The way light reflects off certain surfaces can produce an image.
Does a red light shone on a red surface reflect or absorb?
Reflect.
Why can we see a reflection in the water when it is still but not when it is disturbed?
I think it is because the disturbed surface made the light waves reflect in many directions , breaking up the image.

What is the difference between a specular and a diffuse reflection?
Specular reflection is when light rays reflect off a surface uniformly in a single direction, like a mirror. Diffuse reflection is when light rays reflect off a surface in many different directions, like a matte surface. Specular reflection creates a clear image, while diffuse reflection scatters light in all directions.
What the moon reflect its light for?
its surface
Why does a mirror reflect light so well?
Because it has a shiny & smooth surface which helps to reflect the light... Take an example of tree. A tree have a rough surface due to which light can be reflect. So All of this depends on the smoothness of surface.. :-)

Does a rough surface reflect light in many directions?
Highly polished, shiny surfaces reflect light the best as they are REFLECTive. White or bright surfaces also reflect light well. Dull, Matt surfaces are the worst reflecters of light
