According to the law of reflection, if the angle of incidence of an incoming ray of light hitting a mirror is , what is the angle of reflection for the same ray leaving the mirror?A.B.C.D.
Question
According to the law of reflection, if the angle of incidence of an incoming ray of light hitting a mirror is , what is the angle of reflection for the same ray leaving the mirror?A.B.C.D.
Solution
According to the law of reflection, the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. Therefore, if the angle of incidence of an incoming ray of light hitting a mirror is , the angle of reflection for the same ray leaving the mirror would also be .
