Answer:
X is the shadow.
Y is the reflection.
The main difference between a shadow and a reflection is that a shadow is formed when the path of light rays is blocked by any object whereas a reflection is formed by the bouncing of light rays from any surface.
Explanation:
Difference between a shadow and a reflection-
- A shadow is formed when there is an obstruction in the path of light rays. The change in the direction of light rays when they strike a surface is known as reflection.
- Example-If we place our hand in front of a candle, we can see a shadow on the wall. We can see our reflection in a mirror.
- When the path of light is blocked by an opaque object, a shadow is formed. When light is reflected by a shiny, plane and smooth surface then a reflection is formed.
- The colour of a shadow is always black but the colour of a reflection is same as that of the object.
- A shadow is always virtual where rays appear to meet but a reflection can be either real or virtual.
