Specular reflection
it reflicts back up
The angle between the light ray and the normal (perpendicular) to the surface at the point of reflection.
a reflection is formed when rays of light bounces off an object onto a smooth shiny surface (such that light rays are reflected off at the same angles) and reflects off it into our eyes.when the surface is rough there wouldn't be a reflection as lights rays from an object is reflected off the rough surface at different angles and does not enter our eyes
Any smooth surface will reflect light. The better question is "How much light does each kind of smooth surface reflect?"
Its is a convex!!
If the surface is rought, light may be reflected in just about any direction. There is not the "organized" or "coordinated" reflection which you see in smooth surfaces.If the surface is rought, light may be reflected in just about any direction.

The "roughness" of the surface will reflect light into many directions, scattering it away from your eyes. If the white surface is opaque, it's probably filtering out some wavelengths and would not be very reflective, although it is giving off "white light"
According to law of reflection, the angle of incidence and angle of reflection are equal. If the incident surface is smooth specular reflection takes place where the light is reflected in a single direction.
The surface tension of the water creates a smooth surface. Light, as well as images captured by the eyes, are reflected on that smooth surface.
Water is a completely smooth surface and light is reflected from the sun.
Some light that falls on any surface is scattered back (reflected). A rough surface tends to scatter the light in different directions while a smooth surface tends to scatter more of the original (incident) rays straight back. This explains why a smooth surface reflects a "clearer" image than that reflected from a rough surface.
when a light ray is thrown on a PLANE surface two things occur which cause light to reflect 1- the incident ray is equal to the reflected ray 1- the incident ray , the reflected ray and the normal, at the point of incidence, all lie at the same plane
The sound would be reflected and seem to come from behind the reflective surface. This is commonly experienced near airports, where the sound of aircraft appears to come from the opposite direction, instead of from the airport.
If a person is in front of a smooth surface from which a sound is reflected, the person would hear a sound that ====================================================== Allow me to add(: SEEMS TO COME FROM BEHIND THE SURFACE:>
It is reflected in only one way: in a straight line and the direction such that the angle between the incident ray and the normal at the point of incidence is the same as the angle between the normal and the reflected ray, but on the opposite side of the normal.
They are reflected :)
