Question

When light waves hit ice, most of them bounce off and radiate back into space. Because of this, ice is best described as which kind of surface?

Answer 1

Reflective surface

Step-by-step explanation:

Ice is a reflective surface because most the of the light waves that hits on it bounces off.

• When a surface is smooth and polish, it acts a reflector.
• When a surface is jagged and not smooth light does not readily reflect.
• Reflection is through the incident angle of the light waves.

Therefore, snow is a reflective surface.
