It's a diamond's job to reflect and refract light.
A diamond 'gathers' light from every available source and reflects and refracts it back to the eye of the observer. Its brightness then, depends on how much available light the diamond can collect.
White reflects all other colors of light.
Because light reflects off objects
In absolute darkness, for example, inside a closed cave, a diamond would not be visible. A diamond depends on a light source in order to reflect and refract light. Any ambient light, from the moon, or a streetlight or candlelight will be picked up by a diamond and cause it to shine.
A rainbow is composed of light. Light does not reflect light.
A diamond reflects and refracts rays of existing light. A diamond will not emanate like on its own.
Reflects light from each side
its cz
Like any diamond, the Koh-i-noor reflects light, it does not generate light, notwithstanding its name: Mountain of Light.
diamonds are shiney because it reflects the light and that makes it shiney
Diamonds both reflect and refract light. When light enters a diamond, it is refracted, or bent, due to the diamond's high refractive index. This causes the light to slow down and change direction. The light then reflects off the diamond's facets, creating the diamond's signature sparkle and brilliance.
A diamond glistening in the sunlight is an analogy for sparkle. Just like how a diamond reflects light and shines brightly, something that sparkles catches the light and shimmers with brilliance.
A diamond 'gathers' light from every available source and reflects and refracts it back to the eye of the observer. Its brightness then, depends on how much available light the diamond can collect.
its called dispersion, its when white light enters an object and disperses into different colors
The mirror, which can also be called the light source. It reflects the light.
The extraordinary sparkle of a diamond is due to its high refractive index and dispersion of light. When light enters a diamond, it is reflected multiple times within the diamond before exiting, creating a dazzling display of brilliance and fire. The precision of the diamond cut is crucial in maximizing this effect.
the tapetum lucidum is what reflects the light
