Answer 1

Answer:

a) Yes, the room will receive more light.

Explanation:

Because the mirror will reflect more light

Answer 2

The correct answer is option (a). Yes, the room will receive more light.

• The room will receive more light by placing a burning candle in front of a mirror.
• In reality, this is false because a mirror does not actually increase the light output.
• Because the mirror reflects some of the light, it gives the impression that there is more light.
• Even though the mirror absorbs a small quantity of the light that strikes it, the majority of the light will be reflected.
• An inherent and significant fundamental characteristic of mirrors is light reflection.
• Reflectivity, or the ratio between the amount of light reflected from and that incident upon the mirror surface, is a factor that affects how much light is reflected by a mirror.
