Light strikes a mirror at 20 degrees to the normal what will the angle of reflection be?
The reflection angle will also be 20 degrees from the normal on the other side of the normal in the same plane.
What kind of image is formed in the plane mirror?
An image in a plane mirror is created by the light rays reflecting off the reflective surface of a mirror. The image is always virtual because the light rays remain parallel, meaning they never pass through a focal point. The image is actual size, inverted, and always virtual. When light strikes a plane mirror, the angle of incidence will always equal the angle of reflection.
How is light reflected from plane surfaces?
the base of it has a mirror
What kind of mirror do you have if reflected rays of light pass through the principle focus when light hits a mirror parallel to the principle axis?
plane mirror
Under what condition does a concave mirror behaves as a plane mirror?
when the converging ray of light do not meet at a point, it moves parallelly then under this condition does concave mirror behaves as a plane mirrror.
What happens to the light when it strikes a plane mirror?
Light is an electromagnetic wave and as with all waves when they hit a smooth reflective surface such as a mirror they reflect which means they bounce off at 90 degrees. Light = incident ray Light reflected = reflective ray
What happens when a ray of light hits a plane mirror?
It has the time of its life.
A ray of light strikes a plane mirror such that angle with the mirror is 30 degreewhat is the angle of reflection?
30 degrees as the angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence
Light strikes a mirror at 20 degrees to the normal what will the angle of reflection be?
The reflection angle will also be 20 degrees from the normal on the other side of the normal in the same plane.
What it is a good reflector of light?
plane mirror
What will be the reason - a plane mirror has an angle of incidence O degree?
The light ray arrives perpendicular to the plane of the mirror.
What kind of image is formed in the plane mirror?
An image in a plane mirror is created by the light rays reflecting off the reflective surface of a mirror. The image is always virtual because the light rays remain parallel, meaning they never pass through a focal point. The image is actual size, inverted, and always virtual. When light strikes a plane mirror, the angle of incidence will always equal the angle of reflection.
How does a plane mirror affect light?
Because of the gravity
How is light reflected from plane surfaces?
the base of it has a mirror
What happens to your image in a plane mirror?
your image reflects back
What kind of mirror do you have if reflected rays of light pass through the principle focus when light hits a mirror parallel to the principle axis?
plane mirror
How does image formed by plane mirror?
A highly polishes plane surface which reflects light regularly is called a plane mirror. Image is formed as the light returns to the first medium when it just falls on the other surface of the second medium.
