A plane mirror is a mirror with a planar reflective surface. For light rays striking a plane mirror, the angle of reflection equals the angle of incidence. The angle of incidence is the angle between the incident ray and the surface normal (an imaginary line perpendicular to the surface). Therefore the angle of reflection is the angle between the reflected ray and the normal and a collimated beam of light does not spread out after reflection from a plane mirror, except for diffraction effects.

What is a plan mirror?

A plain mirror is a flat mirror with a reflective surface that creates a virtual image of an object placed in front of it. It reflects light rays at the same angle they hit the mirror, resulting in a reflection that appears identical to the original object. They are commonly used in bathrooms, bedrooms, and dressing rooms.


What is a angle of reflection when ray of light falls normally on a plan mirror?

The angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence when a ray of light falls normally on a plane mirror. This means that the light ray will be reflected back at the same angle at which it struck the mirror.
