Question

What is the difference between an object and its reflection? What causes the difference?

✓

Answer

Object and its reflection result in formation of images.
Reflections taking place from highly polished metals, mirrors, still water etc, form clear images.
Reflections taking place from wooden surface, flower, book form dull, blurred images.
The difference in reflections is caused by the surface of the object.
Regular reflections have smooth, polished surfaces, hence, image is clear.
Diffused reflections have hard, rough surfaces, hence, image is dull.
