What happen to the light when its hits the mirror?
When light hits a mirror, it is reflected back with the same angle as it hit the mirror. This is known as the law of reflection. The angle of incidence (incoming light) is equal to the angle of reflection (reflected light).
When light hits a concave mirror parallel to the principal axis what do the reflected light rays pass through?
When light hits a concave mirror parallel to the principal axis, the reflected light rays converge at the focal point of the mirror.
What happens when a ray of light hits a mirror?
When a ray of light hits a mirror, it gets reflected off the mirror's surface at the same angle that it approached the mirror. This is known as the law of reflection. The angle of incidence (the angle at which the light ray hits the mirror) is equal to the angle of reflection (the angle at which the reflected ray leaves the mirror).
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. A line of reflection is a reflected line, often off of a mirror.

What happen to light when it hits the surface of a curved mirror?
It is reflected.
How do you see your face in the mirror?
Light is reflected off your face, and hits the mirror. The light then reflects off the mirror back to your eyes.
What is light reflected at after hitting a mirror?
Light hitting a flat mirror at an angle is reflected at the same angle, relative to the mirror surface.
What happen to the rays as it hits the surface of the mirror?
When light rays hit the surface of a mirror, they are reflected back at the same angle they hit the mirror. This is known as the law of reflection. The angle of incidence (the angle at which the light ray hits the mirror) is equal to the angle of reflection (the angle at which the light ray is reflected off the mirror).
What happens if the ray of light hits the mirror?
When a ray of light hits a mirror, it is reflected back at an equal angle from the normal (a line perpendicular to the surface of the mirror). This is known as the law of reflection.
What happens when lights hits a mirror?
Depending on which angle the light hits, it will reflect off the mirror and go somewhere else.
What is the beam of light reflected off the mirror?
The reflected beam of light follows the law of reflection, where the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. This means that the angle at which the light beam hits the mirror will be the same as the angle at which it bounces off the 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?
The mirror is a concave mirror. This behavior is a property of concave mirrors, where parallel rays of light are reflected and converge at the principal focus after reflection.
