If light strikes a plate mirror at a 36° angle of incidence, what would you expect the resulting angle of reflection to be?

54°

36°

72°

18°

Respuesta :

The resulting angle of reflection will also be 36°

Laws of reflection

The laws of reflection states as follow:

  • The incident ray, the reflected ray and the normal ray at the point of incidence all lies in the same plane.
  • The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection i.e

Angle of incidence = angle of reflection

From the 2nd law given above, we say that if a light ray incident at 45°, then the reflected angle will also be 45°

How to determine the angle of reflection

  • Angle of incidence = 36°
  • Angle of reflection =?

Angle of reflection = angle of incidence

Angle of reflection = 36°
