Introduction
Light reflects off of surfaces differently depending on the surface. It is known that different metals reflect light at different wavelengths and intensity, but wanting to know how tungsten light reflects off of two different surfaces was tested. These being Aluminum foil and Silver Chloride. Thus the metals that are being tested are Aluminum and Silver.
Experiment
Two different types of metals were used to test the reflecting and intensity of light from a tungsten bulb. These metals were aluminum and silver. This was experimented against a control of there being no reflection (the light was emitted directly onto the probe). To test these a photodiode array was used and the data was then processed through Spectra Suite and Igor.
