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.

Specular reflection occurs on a smooth surface, where light rays are reflected in a single direction, like a mirror. This type of reflection follows the law of reflection, where the angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection.
The reflection of a smooth surface is called a specular reflection, where light is reflected in an organized manner, maintaining the original direction of the light rays.
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.
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.

Specular reflection occurs when parallel rays of light hit a smooth surface and reflect off in a uniform direction, such as with a mirror.
Yes, when light hits a rough surface and is reflected in many different directions, it is called diffuse reflection. This type of reflection occurs when the surface is not smooth and causes the light to scatter.
A reflection from a smooth surface is called a specular reflection. This type of reflection occurs when light rays are reflected at the same angle as the incident angle, resulting in a clear and sharp image.
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.
When light strikes a smooth surface, it gets reflected in a single direction based on the law of reflection. The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. This phenomenon is what causes us to see our reflection in mirrors.
