Black is said to absorb all colors of light, so why can a black surface be reflective, such as a black painted car.
In: Physics
stuff we see everyday isn’t very good at blocking everything, but still good enough that we see colors
In a glossy black surface surface the part of light that doesn’t get absorbed is reflected without being scattered all around, making the surface look glossy, but it’s still a lot less than if it were a mirror
