an incident ray of light fall on a plane mirror at 60 degree angle with the mirror surface. what is the angle of reflection
Answers
Answer:
According to the law of reflection, the angle of incidence and angle of reflection are equal. Both these angles are measured with respect to a line normal to the reflection surface. If I understand the question correctly, the incident ray makes an angle of 60 degrees with the mirror surface, then the angle of incidence can be calculated as:
Angle of incidence = 90 - angle made with the mirror surface
= 90 - 60 = 30 degrees.
Since, angle of incidence = angle of reflection = 30 degrees.
The incident ray will have an angle of reflection of 30 degrees (made with a surface normal to the mirror surface).
The reflected ray will make an angle of 60 degrees (90 - 30 degrees) with the mirror surface.
