Lets just say there was the room and it had mirrors on every wall and there were NO parts not covered by a mirror. And lets also say there was light in that room. Will the light just keep reflecting off the mirrors and never stop? And there are NO parts the light can soak into.
Light is eternal. Unless there is something like a wall or something as small as pollution particulate, light will continue forever . Light travels at 186,282.397 miles per second in a vacuum.
-The problem is that no mirror is a perfect reflector. Some light is lost in each reflection and since light moves so fast it will quickly dissipate (millions of reflections per second) . The room will stay lit longer than if there were no mirrors, but on
I think light will lose its brightness as it spreads out. Or it will reflect in a linear pattern so it won't keep reflecting all the mirrors.
theoretically, the light will go for ever. Another thought would be this: Mathematically, you can never touch the wall. can you figure that out?
