Question

Which of the following would likely be the best reflector of heat energy?

Answer 1

Answer;

A. A polished pale yellow surface

Explanation;

• Shiny Surfaces are very good reflectors of heat. Shiny materials are good reflectors of visible light, one of many kinds of radiation.
• Objects which are good at absorption are as a result poor reflectors.  Some surfaces like polished metal surfaces or a mirror reflect most of the light back into your eyes. Reflection involves two rays: incoming or incident ray and outgoing or reflected ray.
