No,that is reflection. Refraction is when light travels through something clear like water or glass and then the lihght bends and maybe even makes a rainbow
concave mirror, like those found in makeup mirrors or reflecting telescopes.
No, a mirror works by reflecting light. When light hits the smooth surface of a mirror, it bounces off in a predictable way, creating an image of what is in front of it. Refraction occurs when light passes through a transparent medium and changes speed, such as in glass or water.
The index of refraction affects the reflection properties of a mirror by determining how much light is reflected and how much is transmitted through the mirror. A higher index of refraction results in more light being reflected, while a lower index of refraction allows more light to pass through the mirror.
convex mirror
The reflecting surface of a mirror is flat.
- light reflected from a window- light reflected from a mirror- light reflected from snow

Reflection: light bounces off of a surface, like a mirror.Refraction: light goes through a substance and bends. For example, white light through a prism comes out in a rainbow because the light is refracted or bent and each color has a different index of refraction.
I see that someone had been watching youtube lately :) But, to answer your question, a mirror is the colour of what it is reflecting. For example, if you were wearing a completely purple outfit and you were in a completely purple room, the mirror would be purple.

No, a bird looking at a mirror is an example of light being reflected, not refracted. When light hits the mirror, it bounces off in a different direction but does not change mediums. Refraction is when light passes through different mediums and changes direction.
A CONCAVE mirror is a mirror with a reflecting surface that curves inward.
A light bulb provides light through emission of photons due to electrical energy, and is not directly related to reflection or refraction. However, when light emitted by the bulb interacts with a mirror, it undergoes reflection, while when it passes through a lens or prism, it undergoes refraction.
The verb for reflection is reflect.Other verbs which depend on the tense you need are reflects, reflecting and reflected.Some example sentences are:"I will reflect the sunlight with this mirror"."She reflects the beam of light"."We are reflecting the arrows"."The light was reflected into his eyes".
At the end of the reflecting telescope is a primary mirror. This mirror collects and focuses light from distant objects before reflecting it to a smaller secondary mirror or camera for further magnification or analysis.
