  • 7. A piece of tin foil is crumpled by a boy. Why is the surface of the crumpled foil not as shiny as before?
A) This is because light is reflected in different directions after striking the surface.
B) This is because specular reflection occurs.
C) This is because light is reflected in the same direction after striking the surface.
D) This is because light is not reflected but absorbed by the tin foil.
