They are reflected in many directions.
Light reflect in many directions and it is called light reflection
Light reflect in many direction and it is called liht reflection
No this is not true.
All surfaces reflect light. However, only the smoothest surfaces reflect all light in one direction. These are shiny and include mirrors and metal. Some surfaces just reflect the light in all directions, which is why you cannot see the reflection.
It can reflect off a rough surface but the image is not clear ,causing an irregular reflection.
As most paper's surface is rough at microscopic levels therefore they do reflect the light but the light reflected y them is scattered over a large surface due to its rough texture.......As they do not reflect light in a particular direction like mirrors therefore they seems not to reflect the light.....
It is said to be scattering phenomenon
It reflects in different directions because its rough, there is many sides so the light reflects of the sides causing it to reflect in different 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

When light strikes a rough surface it reflects in essentially random directions.
It is said to be scattering phenomenon
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.. :-)
