No, light does not take up physical space because it is made up of particles called photons that have no mass and do not occupy physical space.
No, your mirror reflection does not occupy physical space. It is simply a reflection of light bouncing off the mirror's surface.
Light is not matter because it does not have mass and does not take up physical space like matter does. Light consists of electromagnetic waves that travel at high speeds through space.
A mathematical point in space has no dimensions therefore takes up no space. Certain particles have no rest mass but have the energy equivalent because of the velocity they possess. A singularity is a theoretical no volume point but has a huge mass.
Mass and energy always have locations in both time and space; the amount of space that they take up depends upon their density, but they do take up some. Since energy is often associated with matter (heat, kinetic energy etc.) it would be the matter that takes up the space. The energy would be in the same space as the matter. But energy can also exist independently of matter (such as a photon of light travelling in space) and in that case, the energy takes up space.
Light can fill a room without taking up physical space.
Light it is light i know some people think it's air but u can put it in a tank and it will take up space i learned that from my principal!!
Light hasn't mass.
How about air, or an odor, or sound.
Light. Since light is a refraction of energy from an object to another object, and does not weigh anything, it cannot take up space. You can walk through it, but you cannot feel it. You can almost always identify the source of the light, and once you do, you will see it is something creating that light from the chemical reaction within that object.

-- look up the electrostatic permittivity of free space -- look up the magnetic permeability of free space -- multiply them -- take the square root of the product -- take the reciprocal of the square root The number you have is the speed of light in a vacuum.

Yes it does take up space.

The answer to this riddle is "Light." Light can fill a room and illuminate it, yet it does not take up physical space and travels at the speed of light, making it appear instantaneous in its movement from place to place.
no because it doesn't take up any amount of space
