what is the difference between specular reflection and diffuse reflection with drawing?

A specular reflection is what you get from a polished surface, or mirror. It is clear, and you can see "through" the mirror. A diffuse reflection is what you get from a white wall. ... Many surfaces will be a mix of specular and diffuse - e.g. a smooth desktop will give both kinds of reflection.

If a painted surface is very smooth and glass-like, the reflection is perceived to be “shiny” or “glossy.” Conversely, a flat or low sheen paint has a rough surface profile after it dries. Light that hits such a surface is reflected and scattered in many different directions so it appears “flat” to the eye.

The most obvious difference between DIC and phase contrast microscopy is the pseudo three-dimensional shadow-cast images formed by differential interference contrast optical systems. ... Phase contrast does not produce images having significant three-dimensional character.

An Etch A Sketch has a thick, flat gray screen in a red plastic frame. There are two white knobs on the front of the frame in the lower corners. Twisting the knobs moves a stylus that displaces aluminum powder on the back of the screen, leaving a solid line. The knobs create lineographic images.

In one-way glass, the reflective material is applied less densely. This is called half-silvering. The effect is that the glass is not completely opaque like a traditional mirror. About half the light striking the glass passes through it, and the other half is reflected.

Reflection is flipping an object across a line without changing its size or shape. ... The translation is sliding a figure in any direction without changing its size, shape or orientation.

The main difference: "Highlighter is for a concentrated area of light, while an illuminator casts light more generally," explains Anthony.

At the point of incidence where the ray strikes the mirror, a line can be drawn perpendicular to the surface of the mirror. ... The normal line divides the angle between the incident ray and the reflected ray into two equal angles. The angle between the incident ray and the normal is known as the angle of incidence.

Reflection generally occurs in shinny surfaces that allow rebounding of light without permitting penetration through it. While refraction occurs in transparent surfaces that allows bending of the ray to a different medium. In the case of reflection, the medium in which light propagates remains the same.

Like Ophidian said, "base radiance" just refers to the default appearance/function of the gun. The only other radiance is Obsidian, which gives you a bonus in forges (and gives you a shimmery rainbow-y effect).

Transparent material has the physical properties of allowing light to pass through without a large scattering of light - this means that you can actually see through the material. ... On the other hand, translucent material lets light pass through but objects on the other side can't be seen clearly.

Metallic paints reflect light for a much brighter shine than solids. ... The shine comes from a small amount of aluminium powder mixed into the paint. The metal particles pick up and reflect light, hence the shine.

A mirror reflects almost all of it. A perfect mirror would reflect all of it, but that is not Total Internal Reflection (TIR). TIR occurs when both materials are transparent. So the light can, in theory, pass through the boundary into the second material.

Metallic paints reflect light for a much brighter shine than solids. ... The shine comes from a small amount of aluminium powder mixed into the paint. The metal particles pick up and reflect light, hence the shine. Multiple layers of paint and lacquer – which largely account for the extra cost – add to the effect.

Spectrum - would be light shining through a prism, and giving the full spectrum of its colors. Continuum - would be a coherent beam of light emerging from a laser that is continuous in its monochromal color, never deviating from its original color, and is non-divergent.

Reflection is the phenomenon which sends back the light in the same medium. The medium doesn't change. Refraction is the phenomenon which sends back the light in the different medium. The medium changes.

Mostly the difference lies in the color cast by the muslin itself. Bleached muslin will cast a white light, rather the color of the source, and unbleached muslin tends to have a bit of a warming effect, like adding a 1/4CTO to your source.
