The types are:

a. regular reflection, where a beam coming from a specific direction is reflected at another specific direction, and:

b. diffuse reflection, where the beam is scattered to all directions.

  • specular - reflection as in a mirror, each ray in comes out as one ray
  • diffuse - reflection that scatters, each ray in comes out as many rays

Two types of reflection is diffuse reflection and regular relection. Diffuse on rough,uneven surfaces while regular relection occurs on smooth and polished surfaces.

Differentiate regular reflection from irregular reflection?

1.Regular Reflection takes place only on a smooth and higly polished surface.Eg. Mirror 2.Regular reflection has application of laws of reflections. 1. Irregular(diffuse) reflection takes place on irregular surfaces , with high no. of grooves. Eg. walls 2. Laws of reflection do not apply in irregular relfection.

Is glide reflection equivalent to two reflections across two vertical lines?

No. Glide reflection is a combination of an ordinary reflection and a slide along the line of reflection. A two reflections across two vertical lines is a translation without any reflection or rotation.

Explain how both kinds of reflection obey the law of reflection?

The angle of reflection equals the angle of incidence. In regular reflection, parallel rays strike are reflected from smooth surface at the same angle in diffuse reflection, parallel rays strike and are reflected from a bumpy surface at different angles.
