You apply the law of reflection. The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. The angles are measured between the rays and the normal at the point of incidence, which means the line at right angles to the surface at that point.

When light is reflected does the direction of the light wave change?

Yes, the light wave goes in the direction of the angle or reflection.


When a light wave is reflected from a mirror there is a change in its?

When a light wave is reflected from a mirror, its direction changes. The angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence. The frequency and wavelength of the light wave remain the same after reflection.


What property of light is reflected by the amplitude of a light wave?

The brightness or intensity of light is reflected by the amplitude of a light wave. A greater amplitude corresponds to brighter light, while a smaller amplitude corresponds to dimmer light.

What makes up color?

Color is actually the color of the light wave that gets reflected from a surface.For example if a car is red, a red color light is reflected from the car and the remaining 6 colors are either absorbed or partially reflected.


What electromagnetic wave is seen in a rainbow?

Visible light is the electromagnetic wave seen in a rainbow. This light is refracted, reflected, and dispersed by water droplets in the atmosphere to create the colors we see in a rainbow.


How does color work?

Humans perceive different wave lengths of light as different colors. Objects are struck by all the colors.If all the colors are reflected off the object, it is perceived as a white object.If all the light gets absorbed by the object and none is reflected, Then the object is perceived as black.If the object is blue, only the blue light will be reflected and all other wave lengths will be absorbed by the object. The eye would then perceive the object as blue.That is why black clothing can sometimes be hot to wear.


What is an incident wave and reflected wave?

An incident wave is a wave that strikes a boundary or obstacle. A reflected wave is a wave that bounces off the boundary or obstacle and travels in the opposite direction.
