What happens to the angle of the wave if it hits the perspex at 90 degrees?

It does not change.


If light hits a smooth hard surface at a 35 degree angle at what angle will it reflect of the surface?

By convention angles are measured from the normal to the reflecting surface. The angle of incidence, 35 degrees, is equal to the angle of reflection. In this case 35 degrees. The answer is 35 degrees.


What will be the angle of reflection if a ray of light is incident towards a plane mirror at an angle of 30 degrees with the mirror surface?

If the ray hits the mirror at an angle of 30 degrees with the mirror surface, the complementary angle that the ray makes with the normal (perpendicular) to the mirror at the point of incidence is (90 - 30) = 60 degrees and since angle of incidence is equal to angle of reflection in a plane mirror, the angle of reflection is 60 degrees.


What is the angle of reflection of a light ray that hits a mirror at a 48-degree angle from the normal line?

96 degress? If the light ray is straight, and if the mirror isn't bent, then the angle of reflection is exactly 48 degrees, the same number of degrees as the angle of incidence. That's the law of reflection.


Differentiate Angle of reflection from angle of incidence?

The 'normal' direction is the direction perpendicular to a surface. Think of a stick with one end of it glued to a mirror. When a beam of light or a tennis ball hits the surface, the 'angle of incidence' is the angle between the normal and the direction the ball came from. The 'angle of reflection' is the angle between the normal and the direction the ball will take after the bounce. The angle of reflection will be equal to the angle of incidence. Knowing this, you can always place your bank shot exactly where you want it to go after the bounce.

What is a dead ball rebound in basketball?

A rebound in basketball is when a player gets the ball after a missed shot. Usually taller players will have an advantage when it comes to getting rebounds so they will average more rebounds per game. There are two types of rebounds, offensive and defensive. A defensive rebound is a rebound that you get after an opponent misses a shot and an offensive rebound is a rebound a player gets after one of his teammates misses a shot.


Can players not positioned in the lane rebound ball after a missed free throw?

Yes! As long as they dont move before the ball hits the rim.


If a wave hits a smooth surface at an angel of incidence of 40 degrees the angle of reflection is?

The angle of reflection is 40 degrees. The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.

What is rebounding in basketball?

If the ball bounces off the backboard or rim and you catch it before it hits the ground it counts as a rebound.


Where do energy of the ball go after it hits the ground?

Assuming the ball doesn't rebound: The energy is dissipated. That means it is spread out, as unusable forms of energy; most of it will heat the ball and the ground.


Which golf club produces the most lift?

You mean which club hits the ball the highest? A lob wedge would hit the ball the highest, the face angle on a lob wedge when square can be up to 64 degrees, and can easily be opened to effectively 90 degrees.
