What are the uses of regular reflection?

If light didn't reflect off objects, you wouldn't be able to see them. Mirrors are used as coherent reflectors of received light. Mirrors can be used in periscopes to see around corners, or just on their own to see what one looks like.


What is the minimum index of refraction for a glass or plastic prism to be used in binoculars so that total internal reflection occurs at 45 degrees?

The minimum index of refraction for total internal reflection at a 45-degree angle is 1.41. This means that the glass or plastic prism would need to have an index of refraction greater than or equal to 1.41 to achieve total internal reflection at that angle.


What are the types of reflection?

There's specular reflection, which is the reflection from a surface made of a non-absorbing, non-porous material. Conceptually, this is the type of reflection you get from mirrors and glass and other shiny things.Then there's diffuse reflection, which is the reflection from a surface made of a porous material. The incident light is able to penetrate the surface of a porous material where it then scatters around the material's structural lattice until it finally reflects back out at some random angle. Conceptually, this is the type of reflection that happens on everything but SUPER shiny surfaces. Even mirrors and glass undergo some diffuse reflection.Regular Reflection and Diffuse Reflection.
