Regular
Simply reflection (as opposed to say refraction or diffraction). Reflection results in an angle of reflection of the light ray with the normal equal to the angle of incidence of the light ray.
When light strikes a smooth surface (like a mirror), it is reflected. When it hits a rough surface (like a sheet of paper) it is diffused, meaning the rays of light are scattered.
its the very normal reflection in which the angle of i and r are the same
Reflection
On a smooth surface the angle of reflection and the angle of incidence is equal
When light bounces off something, it is reflected.
A reflection does not have any surface.A reflection does not have any surface.A reflection does not have any surface.A reflection does not have any surface.
When light strikes a rough surface it reflects in essentially random directions.
Reflection works best if it is on a smooth shiny surface.
Specular reflection occurs when light bounces off of a smooth surface such as a mirror!
Simply reflection (as opposed to say refraction or diffraction). Reflection results in an angle of reflection of the light ray with the normal equal to the angle of incidence of the light ray.
When a sound wave strikes a smooth hard surface the wave bounces off. This means that the wave is deflected.
When light strikes a smooth surface (like a mirror), it is reflected. When it hits a rough surface (like a sheet of paper) it is diffused, meaning the rays of light are scattered.
Regular Reflection= Happens when light reflects off a smooth surface. Diffuse Reflection= Happens when light reflects off a rough surface. Reflection= The bouncing of waves, off a surface or and object
its the very normal reflection in which the angle of i and r are the same

If the surface is rought, light may be reflected in just about any direction. There is not the "organized" or "coordinated" reflection which you see in smooth surfaces.If the surface is rought, light may be reflected in just about any direction.
