Yes, 100% reflection occurs to light approaching the intra-media boundary at some angles. When light passes from a more dense medium to one that is less dense it bends away from the normal (the imaginary line perpendicular to the boundary where the transfer happens). So there is an angle of incidence corresponding to a beam that is refracted to 90° from the normal. If the angle of incidence is even more shallow than that, total internal reflection occurs. If you look at the surface of the water in an aquarium from next to the aquarium just below the water's surface, it's just like a mirror. Since the amount of refraction is proportional to the difference between the refractive indexes of the media, much more total internal reflection happens in substances with much higher refractive indexes, like diamonds, accounting for the glistening.
the laws of reflection hold for irregular reflection because every angle of incidence and reflection have their own normals.therefore the angle of reflection become equal to the reflected ray and thus the law of reflection hold.if they have their own normal they must be in one plane.
yes man of course
yes .. at any interface when light passes from one medium to another part of it gets reflected and remaining refracted. so some amount of light incident when passing from air to glass gets reflected. but in the reverse way i.e, from glass to air there is chance for all the light incident to get reflected as in the case of total internal reflection. and again coming to your case the amount of light reflected follows the laws of reflection i.e, angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. the light which got refracted follows the snell's laws of refraction.
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.
both follow quite much the same laws .....bt after following d laws if it comes outtof d other side its refraction if it comes out frm d same surface frm wer it entered its reflection.
When the rays of light do not follow the laws of reflection, then this type of reflection is called diffused reflection.

Descartes explains the logic behind the laws of reflection he discovered in his work "Dioptrics". He uses the idea of a tennis ball bouncing at an angle of the ground and up through a sheet to formulate the laws of reflection on a geometric plane.
A prism can help us understand the refraction and the reflection of light when it asses between 2 different mediums ( from one medium into another less refractive or from one medium into another more refractive ) and the ray of light may emerge out of the prism by refraction or by reflection and sometimes by total internal reflection ( by obeying the 2 laws of reflection and by making the angel of incidence equal to the angle of reflection ) and sometimes it may continue its path without deviation that is when the angle of incidence is equal to 0 degrees then the angle of refraction will be equal to 0 degrees this is called undeviated !It separates the wavelengths contained in a beam of light.

there are two laws of reflection 1 angle of incidence is always equal to the angle of reflection 2 incident ray,reflected ray and the normal at the point of incidence lie in the same plane.
The angle of incidence is ALWAYS equal to the angle of reflection! This is one of the laws of reflection.
