A mirror is a surface that reflects radiation, including visible light. It has a high level of reflectivity due to its smooth surface.
Black surfaces absorb and emit more radiation across a wider range of wavelengths compared to white surfaces, which reflect more radiation. This difference in absorption and emission rates leads to black surfaces becoming hotter than white surfaces when exposed to radiation.
A dull surface is a better absorber of infrared radiation heat compared to a shiny surface. The rough texture of a dull surface allows for more absorption of infrared radiation, while a shiny surface reflects much of the radiation.
Yes, the shape of an object can affect the way it interacts with radiation. Irregular shapes can scatter radiation more than regular shapes. The surface area-to-volume ratio of an object can also impact how much radiation it absorbs or reflects.
i don't think that it has a special name , i think it just reflects the light . however if heat reflects on a shiny surface this is called reflective radiation. hope this helps *)
Materials such as metals, any object with a rough surface, and certain gases like carbon dioxide and water vapor can reflect infrared radiation. These materials have properties that allow them to either absorb and re-emit or scatter the infrared radiation that falls on them.

One term often used in Astronomy is the albedo. It refers to the percentage or fraction of incoming light that is reflected.

The fraction of incident radiation reflected by a surface. -ie, how brightly something reflects a light. -usually referring to stars etc.

Yes, radiation can be absorbed by a silver surface. The absorption of radiation will depend on factors such as the type of radiation, the energy level, and the thickness of the silver surface.
The ozone layer reflects the sun's radiation. these are harmful UV rays.
A shiny surface reflects 'more' light than a matt surface.
Long wave radiation emitted by the sun reflects off earth's surface and is absorbed by heat trapping gas in the atmosphere. Nitrogen and oxygen do NOT absorb infrared radiation, but CO2, CH4, and H2O DO trap heat.
It reflects a radiation of b radiation which is a color green.
