What happens when there is reflection in light waves?
That means that the light waves rebound, and change direction.
What is bouncing back of light waves?
Reflection.
When light waves hit a rough surface they create what type of reflection?
When light waves hit a rough surface they create a diffuse reflection. This means that the waves spread out in different angles.
What is the meaning of reflection relating to waves?
Refracted light.
One difference between reflection and refaction of light waves is the?
In reflection, the light waves travel within the same media and maintains the same speed but in refraction light waves travel through a different media and so their speed changes.
Reflection occurs when light strikes and then?
When the light waves strikes an object and bounces off
What is reflection with examples?
Reflection is the bouncing back of light waves. Some examples are a mirror, and water. :)
Differentiate regular reflection from diffuse reflection?
Regular Reflection= Happens when light reflects off a smooth surface. Diffuse Reflection= Happens when light reflects off a rough surface. Reflection= The bouncing of waves, off a surface or and object
What is it called when light waves bounce off matter?
It's called "reflection".
Describe how the reflection of light waves enables you to see your image in a mirror?
The light then reflects off the mirror into the eyes.

How is trigonometry used in optics?
Optics deals with light waves, and all waves relate in some way to trigonometry. Also, the reflection and refraction of light involves trigonometry.
