What else can I help you with?
Can a mirror reflect sound?
No, mirrors cannot reflect sound as they are designed to reflect light. Sound waves interact differently with surfaces compared to light waves, so while mirrors work for reflecting light, they do not work for reflecting sound.
Which type of mirror uses its outside as the reflecting surface?
convex mirror
Is the reflecting surface of the mirror flat curved inward or curved outward?
The reflecting surface of a mirror is flat.
What happens when a sound reflects?
When a sound reflects, it bounces off a surface and changes direction. The sound wave behaves similarly to light waves reflecting off a mirror. The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.
What is the science behind a reflection?
Like in a mirror? A reflection in terms of light is the interaction of electromagnetic waves (light) with electrons at the surface of the reflecting material. Reflections also occur with other types of waves, such as sound or waves on water. Whenever wave energy makes contact with a material surface, it is either reflected, absorbed or transmitted through the material.
What is the meaning of reflector?
One who, or that which, reflects., Something having a polished surface for reflecting light or heat, as a mirror, a speculum, etc., A reflecting telescope., A device for reflecting sound.
Can a mirror reflect sound?
No, mirrors cannot reflect sound as they are designed to reflect light. Sound waves interact differently with surfaces compared to light waves, so while mirrors work for reflecting light, they do not work for reflecting sound.
Which type of mirror uses its outside as the reflecting surface?
convex mirror
A mirror with a reflecting surface that caves inward is said to be?
A CONCAVE mirror is a mirror with a reflecting surface that curves inward.
At the end of the reflecting telescope is a what mirror?
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.
What type of material is a mirror?
A mirror is made out of glass. Since light doesn't travel through a mirror, it is opaque. On the back of a mirror is a thin layer of silver or chrome which is the reflecting surface. Behind this is backing which keeps the silver in place and keeps it from oxidizing.
Is the reflecting surface of the mirror flat curved inward or curved outward?
The reflecting surface of a mirror is flat.
What is a curve mirror?
It is a mirror whose reflecting surface is curved, not flat (as in a plane mirror).
What is curved mirror?
It is a mirror whose reflecting surface is curved, not flat (as in a plane mirror).
What happens when a sound reflects?
When a sound reflects, it bounces off a surface and changes direction. The sound wave behaves similarly to light waves reflecting off a mirror. The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.
What is a external mirror?
An external mirror is a mirror that points outward, creating views of whatever it is reflecting
Does a reflecting telescope gather light with a lens or a mirror?
A reflecting telescope gathers light with a mirror instead of a lens. The mirror reflects light to a focus point where the image is formed. This design eliminates chromatic aberration that can occur with lenses.
