🖼️ Surface Texture: Effect on Reflection
The texture of a surface determines how light reflects off it.
Smooth surfaces like mirrors produce regular reflection where rays reflect uniformly, creating clear images.
Rough surfaces cause diffused reflection where light scatters in many directions, resulting in no clear image.
Understanding surface texture helps explain why we see sharp reflections in mirrors but not on rough walls or paper.
