Detailed explanation-1: -Light will sometimes bounce off of a surface in a phenomenon described as reflection. When an incident beam of light strikes the surface of a smooth object, such as a mirror, the light is reflected at an angle equal to that of the angle of incident light with respect to the normal.

Detailed explanation-2: -Reflection is when light bounces off an object. If the surface is smooth and shiny, like glass, water or polished metal, the light will reflect at the same angle as it hit the surface.

Detailed explanation-3: -Reflection. Reflection is when incident light (incoming light) hits an object and bounces off. Very smooth surfaces such as mirrors reflect almost all incident light. The color of an object is actually the wavelengths of the light reflected while all other wavelengths are absorbed.

Detailed explanation-4: -Specular reflection is defined as light reflected from a smooth surface at a definite angle, whereas diffuse reflection is produced by rough surfaces that tend to reflect light in all directions (as illustrated in Figure 3).

Detailed explanation-5: -The two types of reflection are diffused reflection and regular reflection.
