When describing image formation in mirrors what is the angle on incidence?
The angle of incidence is the angle formed by the incident ray and the normal line drawn to the point of incidence on a mirror. It is measured from the incident ray to the normal line.
Does light bounce off mirrors in all directions?
yes it does, light travels in all directions.
Can mirror allow light to pass through?
No, mirrors do not allow light to pass through. They reflect light, resulting in a specular reflection where the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. This is how mirrors create images.
What is the formula for angle of incidence?
The formula for calculating the angle of incidence is: Angle of Incidence = Angle of Reflection. The angle of incidence is the angle between the incident ray and the normal to the surface at the point of incidence.
What are three similarities between concave and convex mirrors?
Both concave and convex mirrors can create virtual images, which are images that cannot be projected onto a screen. Both types of mirrors follow the laws of reflection, with the angle of incidence being equal to the angle of reflection. Both concave and convex mirrors can be used in optical devices such as makeup mirrors or security mirrors.
When describing image formation in mirrors what is the angle on incidence?

Does light bounce off mirrors in all directions?
yes it does, light travels in all directions.
Why does the angle of incidence equal the angle of reflection in the case of curved mirrors?
because that's the rule. angle of incident ALWAYS = angle of reflection.
Can mirror allow light to pass through?
No, mirrors do not allow light to pass through. They reflect light, resulting in a specular reflection where the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. This is how mirrors create images.
The angle of reflection is equal to the .......?
The angle of incidence
What kinds of mirrors are used in amusement parks to distort the size and shape of your body How do you think they work?
Amusement parks use a variety of convex and conclave mirrors in Fun Houses. These mirrors distort the image because the angle of incidence is different from the angle of reflection.
What is the formula for angle of incidence?
The formula for calculating the angle of incidence is: Angle of Incidence = Angle of Reflection. The angle of incidence is the angle between the incident ray and the normal to the surface at the point of incidence.
What is true about the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection for curved mirrors?
Those angles are equal at the point where a ray of light hits the mirror,regardless of the shape of the mirror.

How do lasers reflect off of mirrors?
Lasers reflect off mirrors by following the law of reflection, which states that the angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection. When a laser beam hits a mirror, it bounces off at the same angle it hit the mirror, maintaining its direction and intensity.
Does the relationship between the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection change as the angle of incidence increases?
No, the relationship between the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection remains the same regardless of the angle of incidence. This relationship is governed by the law of reflection, which states that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.
The law of reflection states that the angle of blank equals the angle of reflection?
The angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence. In the "diagram" below the line pointing up is perpendicular to the horizontal line. The horizontal line is something like a mirror. | | ____________|_________ Now if a light wave was to hit the mirror where the two lines cross then the angle of incidence is the angle between the light wave and the perpendicular line. The angle of reflection will be the same angle only in the opposite rotation to the perpendicular
