What name is given to reflected light?

The name given to reflected light is "reflection." This is when light waves bounce off a surface and change direction.


Name the two rays involved in reflection?

The two rays involved in reflection are the incident ray, which is the ray of light approaching the reflective surface, and the reflected ray, which is the ray of light that bounces off the surface after reflection.


Some of the light doesn't reach the surface is reflected upwards and the rest is absorbed causind the ground to warm what is the name of this special light?

That light is called infared radiation =)


What is the fraction if solar radiation that is reflect off a particular surface called?

There is no special name. The fraction of sunlight which is reflected will be different from the fraction of other light. The reflectivity of a surface varies with the wavelength of the incident light.


What is the name of the amount of sunlight that the surface of the moon reflects?

In astronomy, the amount of light reflected by the Moon - or by any other object - is called "albedo", which literally means "whiteness".In astronomy, the amount of light reflected by the Moon - or by any other object - is called "albedo", which literally means "whiteness".In astronomy, the amount of light reflected by the Moon - or by any other object - is called "albedo", which literally means "whiteness".In astronomy, the amount of light reflected by the Moon - or by any other object - is called "albedo", which literally means "whiteness".


What is the name of a ray the travels towards an object?

A ray that travels towards an object is known as an incident ray. It represents the path of light before it interacts with the object's surface.


What is the name of the special light that comes from the warm ground?

It is called infared radiation. Hope that's the answer you need =)


Name and describe three different ways light interacts with matter?

Absorption: Light energy is absorbed by matter, causing the material to heat up or undergo a chemical change. Reflection: Light bounces off the surface of an object, allowing us to see it. The angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence. Transmission: Light passes through a material without being absorbed or reflected. This can result in refraction, where the light changes direction.


What is the name of the line drawn perpendicular to the surface where light rays strike?

A normal line is the name of the line drawn perpendicular to the surface where a light ray strikes.

What is the name of the line drawn perpendiculars to the surface where the light rays strikes?

A normal line is the name of the line drawn perpendicular to the surface where a light ray strikes.


What is the proportion of light reflected from a planet?

The name of the fraction of light reflected off a celestial object is its albedo. The moon has an albedo of around 0.12 which is to say about 12% of the light that falls on it gets reflected (some sources say as low as 7%) - meaning it's pretty dark. Enceladus, a moon of Saturn, has an albedo of about 0.99.
