What is the name of the ray that represents the light reflected by the surface.?
Reflected ray
What is difference between incident ray and a reflected ray?
A ray of light which strikes the surface is called incident ray and a surface which is reflected is called a reflected ray
What reflection occurs when light hits an irregular surface?
Each ray of light is reflected according to the rules for a regular surface. But, because the surface is irregular, the direction of the reflected ray will vary from one point to another. This is called scattering.
As a ray of light passes from air into glass the angle it makes with the surface normal will?
REFLECTION... (this is the right answer for: A ray of light strikes a flat surface of water. The angle that the reflected light ray makes with the normal is called the angle of? )if not incident ray.
What is a term that means reflected light?
The light which enters is called the incident ray and the reflected light is called the reflected ray.
What is the name of the ray that represents the light reflected by the surface.?
Reflected ray
What is difference between incident ray and a reflected ray?
A ray of light which strikes the surface is called incident ray and a surface which is reflected is called a reflected ray
What is the difference between incident ray and the reflected ray?
incident ray-the light ray striking a reflecting surface is called the incident ray. reflected ray-the light ray obtained after reflection from the surface, in the same medium in which the incident ray is travelling , is called the reflected ray.
What is the difference between an incident ray and a reflected ray?
The ray which hits or falls on a object or a material initially is known as INCIDENT RAY. The ray which gets reflected after hitting the object is known as REFLECTED RAY.
How will light hitting a solid surface be reflected back?
when a light ray is thrown on a PLANE surface two things occur which cause light to reflect 1- the incident ray is equal to the reflected ray 1- the incident ray , the reflected ray and the normal, at the point of incidence, all lie at the same plane
What reflection occurs when light hits an irregular surface?
Each ray of light is reflected according to the rules for a regular surface. But, because the surface is irregular, the direction of the reflected ray will vary from one point to another. This is called scattering.
When light is reflected from smooth surface the angle of incidence is?
The angle between the light ray and the normal (perpendicular) to the surface at the point of reflection.
As a ray of light passes from air into glass the angle it makes with the surface normal will?
REFLECTION... (this is the right answer for: A ray of light strikes a flat surface of water. The angle that the reflected light ray makes with the normal is called the angle of? )if not incident ray.
What is a term that means reflected light?
The light which enters is called the incident ray and the reflected light is called the reflected ray.
What are the differences between an incident ray and a reflection ray?
A incidence ray is the ray that strikes the reflecting surface (prior to reflection). A reflection ray is the ray is reflected from the reflecting surface (after being reflected).
What happens when a light ray hits a surface?
They may be absorbed and converted to heat or reflected in scattered fashion.
What happens when a ray of light hits a reflective surface like a mirror?
It'll undergo reflection and will get reflected back
