A standard planar mirror will not increase the energy contained in the rays that reflect off it. In fact, there will be some loss of energy since the reflective surface is not perfect. There is some reduction in the light's intensity as it passes through the mirror's glass and reflects off the backing surface. Parabolic mirrors, on the other hand, focus and concentrate the light rays on a single point in front of the mirror, aptly named the focus. Although the energy is not amplified, it will be effectively increased because of the additive effect that will result when the light energy is concentrated. To clarify, the "rays" of the sun, i.e. the photons (energy), do not have any temperature at all, they interact with matter and heat the matter up.
Sunrays are formed when sunlight travels through the Earth's atmosphere and reaches the surface. The particles in the atmosphere scatter the sunlight, causing it to appear as distinct rays. The angle of the sun's rays can change depending on the time of day and the position of the sun in the sky.
The surface of the moon is covered with a high reflecting stonepowder, which reflects the sunrays. So, the moon itself doesn't glow, the sun does.
The ultra-violet part of the sun's radiation, which has a higher frequency and is more energetic than the visible part. A small exposure can create a pleasant tan, but too much causes burning of the skin.
Moonlight. it is the light that comes to Earth from the Moon. This light does not originate from the Moon, but is actually reflected sunlight. In many legends and fantasy games, moonlight is an important part of magical processes (for example, werewolves transform at full moon).
Lighter roof colors such as white, light gray, or light beige tend to absorb less heat and reflect more sunlight compared to darker roof colors. This can help reduce the amount of heat that is transferred into the building and lower cooling costs.

Yes, sunrays heat the ocean by transferring energy to the water's surface. The absorption of sunlight warms the upper layers of the ocean, affecting temperature and influencing weather patterns. This process is essential for regulating the Earth's climate and supporting marine ecosystems.

Sunrays play a crucial role in plant growth and photosynthesis. Plants use sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose, which is their main source of energy. Sunrays provide the necessary energy for this process, allowing plants to grow and produce oxygen as a byproduct. Without sufficient sunlight, plants may not be able to photosynthesize effectively, leading to stunted growth and reduced productivity.
Sunlight, or sunrays, travels at the speed of light, which is about 186,282 miles per second (299,792 kilometers per second) in a vacuum. When sunlight enters the Earth's atmosphere, it slows down slightly due to interactions with particles in the atmosphere, but it still travels at a very fast speed.
The surface of the moon is covered with a high reflecting stonepowder, which reflects the sunrays. So, the moon itself doesn't glow, the sun does.
Eyebrows play a key role in directing sweat and sunrays away from the eye. The arched shape works to channel sweat away from the eye, and the hair helps to block sunlight. Additionally, eyelashes also help by filtering out debris and capturing sweat before it reaches the eye.

Well, Not all places it would, At equator it would be hot where as as move to pole the inclination of the sunrays will increase and so the temp. decreases.
Countries near the equator are warmer because the land receives and retains more sunlight than countries closer to the poles of the planet. The equator receives sunlight from directly overhead. This means that if the sun throws (for example) 10 sunrays per square foot to a tropical place, a square foot on the ground will get the full 10 sunrays. Not only that, but some sunrays will bounce straight back up, hit the top of the atmosphere and bounce straight back down to the same place again. These sunrays contain both light and heat which make for a pretty hot place. Now lets go to New York, where the sun is not directly overhead in the summer. The sun throws the same 10 sunrays per foot at an angle toward us, but since it's at an angle the 10 sunrays are more spread out when they hit the ground. So now you have 10 sunrays hitting New York every 1 and a half or 2 feet. That's less light and less heat. Also, the bounce is at an angle so if some of the sunrays are reflected back, they will hit in a different place. Equatorial lands also receive more sunlight because the sunlight travels through less atmosphere than non-equatorial lands.
There are many vessels with that name.
