light is needed to reflect an image off a mirror...no light no reflection

∙ 14y agoA parallel light source will reflect off a concave mirror and go through a point inside the curve called the focus. Reflecting from a convex mirror will cause all light to bounce off in a straight line away from a focus point behind the mirror.

the same amount of candle light that of wich the candle is emmiting.
Because it has a shiny & smooth surface which helps to reflect the light... Take an example of tree. A tree have a rough surface due to which light can be reflect. So All of this depends on the smoothness of surface.. :-)
It reflects at like 45 degrees I think. No, it reflects off at the same angle it hits the mirror. If the light wave hits the mirror at a 30o angle on the left side, it will reflect off at a 30o angle on the right side. Scientists usually measure these angles from an imaginary line perpendicular to the mirror at the point where the light wave hits the reflecting surface; sounds awkward, but it makes the math easier.
No, you would not be able to see a mirror in a dark room as mirrors require light to reflect an image. Without light, the mirror cannot reflect any visual information back to your eyes.
No, a mirror cannot reflect fire. Mirrors reflect light, but not heat or flames.
it will reflect off it
Mirrors reflect light without disturbing the incoming image, which is called specular reflection. A mirror reflects a light print of anything in front of it.
The mirror used to reflect light in a microscope is called the concave mirror. This mirror is located beneath the stage of the microscope and directs light up through the specimen for viewing.
A satellite can be used to reflect light to improve visibility or communication over a larger area. This reflection can also help with tracking and monitoring objects in space, as well as providing a beacon for navigation purposes.
If it's really a "mirror", then it reflects light, regardless of its shape.
Reflection - the bouncing back of light rays from a surface, such as a mirror, without being absorbed.
In a dark room, a mirror will not reflect anything because there is no light for it to bounce off of and create a reflection. Mirrors require light to reflect images.
Yes, a mirror reflects light by bouncing it off at the same angle it arrives. This reflection creates a clear image of the objects in front of the mirror.
When you shine light through a mirror, the light will reflect off the mirror's surface and bounce back. Some light may also pass through the mirror, depending on its transparency. Overall, the mirror will predominantly reflect the light due to its smooth and reflective surface.
