That would depend on whether the object was active or passive.
A passive reflector would gain some energy from the photons during the collision / interaction. An active reflector would first gain some energy then lose more as it pumps energy into the photons, boosting them. Although, at present, I can't think of an example of an active reflector of light, an example concept would be the flipper in a pinball game.

What gives something potintial energy?
Potential energy is the theory that an object has energy that can be released. Gravitational Potential Energy is an example of this. GPE is obtained as you gain height, the more height, the more GPE.
What is the relationship between the gravitational potential energy of an object and the work done on the object by the gravitational force?
I would have described them as different types of energy, so don't see what the relationship could be. If you hit a ball high in the air, it will have elastic energy stored in it from the initial blow, and it will also gain gravitational energy as it rises. The gravitational energy arises because the ball was given kinetic energy when it was hit, the elastic energy because it was deformed, but I don't think they then interact.

What happens when electrons moves to higher energy level?
The electron gains energy.
When a solid changes to liquid will it gain or lose energy?
It looses energy to the surroundings. When bindings brakes, energy is released.
Is it true that temperature is the measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in an object?
For the "ideal gas" kinetic theory gets the following relation:Ek = 3/2 RTwhere Ek is the average molar kinetic (translation) energy, R the universal gas constant and T the thermodynamic temperature.Solids molecules or atoms don't have translation energy, changes in their internalenergy are given by changes namely in their vibrational energy components.
What does an object do when it absorbs all light that strikes it?
the atom of the object will gain kinetic energy from the light
What are the three main parts of laser?
The three main parts of a laser are the gain medium, which amplifies the light signal, the optical cavity, which reflects and guides the light, and the energy source, which provides the energy to excite the gain medium.
When light is soaked into an object or surface?
When light is absorbed by an object or surface, it causes the material to gain energy, usually in the form of heat. The absorbed light energy may also be converted into other forms of energy within the material, such as chemical or electrical energy, depending on the properties of the material.
Can an object gain more energy?
Sure, you can add energy to an object. For example, you can heat an object up (to have it gain heat energy), you can raise it (to have it gain gravitational potential energy), or you can make it move (to have it gain kinetic energy). In each case, the energy has to come from somewhere.
What type of surface reflects heat energy?
A light-colored, smooth surface like white concrete or aluminum reflects heat energy by redirecting it away rather than absorbing it. This helps to keep the surface cooler and reduces heat gain in the surrounding area.
Can an object gain the velocity of light?
The word object is a very general term. A photon is also an object, and it does travel at the speed of light. But it never travels at any other speed, so it doesn't "gain" that speed. If we were to ask about objects made of atoms, then the answer is no, they can never accelerate to the velocity of light. They can get arbitrarily close, depending upon how much energy is used to accelerate them, but they can never actually get to the full speed of light.
When you do work to lift an object what form of energy does the object gain?
The object gains potential energy when you do work to lift it. This potential energy is due to its position in the gravitational field.
How can potencial energy change to kinetic energy?
yes it can, if you move the object it will gain kinetic energy
What is the effect by which an object begins to glow while heated?
When an object begins to glow while heated, it is due to incandescence, which is the emission of electromagnetic radiation (often in the form of visible light) as a result of being heated to high temperatures. As the object's temperature increases, the atoms or molecules within the object gain energy, causing them to emit light as they return to a lower-energy state.
When work is done on an object the object gains energy. true false?
True. When work is done on an object, energy is transferred to the object, causing it to gain energy. This increase in energy can manifest as motion, heat, or changes in the object's internal state.
How are objects able to gain energy as well as use it?
Objects can gain energy through various forms of energy transfer, such as heat, light, or mechanical work being done on the object. Once energy is gained, objects can use it for various purposes such as movement, heating, or powering electronic devices through energy transformations within the object's systems.
How do objects gain energy?
Objects can gain energy through various processes such as absorbing heat, transferring kinetic energy from other objects through collisions, or by absorbing electromagnetic radiation. This energy can then be used to perform work or to increase the object's internal energy.
