Colour & Reflection of Light |
|
Colours of the visible spectrum with increasing wavelength
When reflecting off a mirror, the specular reflection occurs. The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection
When light is reflected from the majority of surfaces it is scattered – a process known as diffuse reflection
White light may be separated into all its colours by passing it through a prism
