What happens to the beam of a flashlight when it hits a mirror?
When the beam of a flashlight hits a mirror, it is reflected.
What happens when a straight beam of light hits a plain mirror at a right angle?
The beam of light is reflected back directly along its original path. I assume you are asking what happens if the light beam is exactly perpendicular to the plane of the mirror. I am assuming we aren't getting into such things as quantum mechanics where the answer to the question could be a bit freaky depending on the ideal nature of the conditions.
What happens when water hits light?
the lightning vaporizes the water it hits and also charges the water with electricity (don't go swimming)
What happens when light passes through one transparent material into clear water?
the light is transmitted through the transparent material into the water which is transmitted untill it hits soething opaque amd the light is absorbed into that.
What happens when light hits foil?
It should reflect the light.
What happens to a beam of light once it hits water?
The incident ray (the incoming light) hits the water and then the speed is slowed. It is called 'Refraction'. Which is the bending of light through a translucent or transparent object.
What happens when a straight beam of light hits a mirror?
By omed, The mirror breaks and the light turns blue.
What happens to the beam of a flashlight when it hits a mirror?
When the beam of a flashlight hits a mirror, it is reflected.
What happens when light hits water at an angle?
fills up it
What happens when a beam of light hits a flat mirror at a forty five degree angle?
It is reflected 90 degrees from its original direction.

A beam of light enters a fish tank hits the mirrored surface of the bottom and then comes out at the top what hampens?
reflection, refraction, and reflection occurs because of how the beam of light hits. and where it hits.
What is a line of reflection?
A line of reflection is a reflected line, often off of a mirror. If a flashlight sends a beam of light at a mirror (the light is called the incident beam), the angle at which it hits the mirror will equall the angle at which the reflected beam of light (called the reflected beam), exits the mirror. This is called the Law of Reflection. This is why light is reflected from a mirror at the same angle at which light struck its surface.

It should reflect the light.
What happens when a ray of light hits a mirror?
The light hits the mirror and the light bounces off like a reflection
