Light is made of photons, so how do mirrors put the photons on a route that follows the law of reflection?
You must log in or # to comment.
light is also a wave, and don’t forget, some wavelengths will go right through the mirror and not reflect at all
That is indeed true, but how do you redirect a wave with what is just a bunch of atoms? Do you reradiate it?
No, the wave is just bouncing off the atoms in the mirror, same as sound would
How does that work?
See Newton’s Laws
I don’t that’s how it works, after all it’s a different scale and quantum mechanical
