Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

A ray of light strikes a plane mirror at an angle of 30 degrees to the normal. What is the angle of reflection? (2022)
  • Step 1: Identify the angle at which the ray of light strikes the mirror. In this case, it is 30 degrees to the normal.
  • Step 2: Understand the law of reflection, which states that the angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence.
  • Step 3: Since the angle of incidence is 30 degrees, according to the law of reflection, the angle of reflection will also be 30 degrees.
  • Law of Reflection – The principle stating that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection when light strikes a reflective surface.
