Question

5) State the laws of reflection of light.

List two characteristics of the images formed by plane mirrors.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The law of reflection states that when a ray of light reflects off a surface, the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.

Explanation:

The three laws of reflection are

1. The angle between the incident ray and the normal is equal to the angle between the reflected ray and the normal

2. The incident ray, the normal and the reflected ray are all in the same plane

3. Incident ray and refracted ray are on different sides of the normal

Answer 2

Answer:

The laws of reflection of light are :

1. The angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence.

2. The incident ray and the reflected ray and the normal ray all lie on the same plane

3. The incident ray and normal ray are on the different sides of the normal.

Characteristics are:

1. Image formed by the plane mirror are virtual and upright.

2. Image is same size as the object.
