Reflection Flashcards
1
Q
what is the angle of incidence
A
the angle of incidence is the angle between the incident light ray and the normal
2
Q
what is the normal
A
the normal is a line at 90 degrees to the plane
3
Q
what is the angle of reflection
A
the angle of reflection is the angle between the reflected light ray and the normal
4
Q
what does the law of reflection state
A
the law of reflection states that the the angle of incidence = the angle of reflection
5
