A mirror and most surfaces reflect lots of things like light and heat.

If you shine sunlight on a mirror it will reflect sunlight.

Sunlight is the radiation which the sun gives off, within sunlight there are many different wave lengths with include infa-red and ultra-violet.

In short a mirror with reflect certain wave-lengths, to understand better it is best you research on waves.

What happens to a ray of light as it enters and leaves a mirror?

When a ray of light enters a mirror, it undergoes reflection, where it bounces off the mirror surface. The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. When the ray of light leaves the mirror, it continues to follow the same rule of reflection, keeping the angle of incidence equal to the angle of reflection.


What happens when a ray of light hits a mirror?

When a ray of light hits a mirror, it gets reflected off the mirror's surface at the same angle that it approached the mirror. This is known as the law of reflection. The angle of incidence (the angle at which the light ray hits the mirror) is equal to the angle of reflection (the angle at which the reflected ray leaves the mirror).


What is the ray of light that shines on a mirror?

An incident ray is the ray of light that shines on a mirror. This is the ray that strikes the mirror's surface.


The ray that strikes the mirror is called the what?

The ray that strikes the mirror is called the incident ray.


What is the name of the ray that strikes the mirror?

The name of the ray that strikes the mirror is called incident ray.


What is the angle formed by a light ray coming into a mirror?

The angle between the ray and the perpendicular to the mirror (NOT the mirror itself), at the point where the ray hits the mirror is called the angle of incidence.


What is the name of the ray of light that hits a mirror?

The ray of light that hits a mirror is called the incident ray.


What Ray of light that strikes a mirror is called?

The ray of light that strikes a mirror is called an incident ray.


What will happen when a light is shone at a mirror?

it will reflect off it


What is a ray that bounces off the mirror?

A ray that bounces off a mirror is called a reflected ray. When light hits a mirror, it reflects off at the same angle it approached the mirror, following the law of reflection.


A light ray hitting a mirror at an angle is reflected off at angle?

The angle between the incident ray and the mirror is equal to the angle between the reflected ray and the mirror.


When you shine a flashlight at a mirror the ray of light that shines back at you is the ray of incidence?

When you shine a flashlight at a mirror, the ray of light that shines back at you is the ray of reflection, not incidence. The ray of incidence is the incoming ray of light that strikes the mirror. The ray of reflection is the outgoing ray that bounces off the mirror at an equal but opposite angle to the incident ray.
