Answer:

Reflection can simply be defined as the reflection of light when it strikes the medium on a plane. Refraction can be defined as the process of the shift of light when it passes through a medium leading to the bending of light. The light entering the medium returns to the same direction.

Answer:

Question : Define reflection ...of light

Define refraction... of light

➡️ Reflection of light ⤵️

The phenomenon of bouncing back of light into the same medium by the smooth surface is called reflection

➡️ Example of reflection of light⤵️

•Twinkling of stars or light

Reflected by a mirror.

➡️Laws of Reflection of light ⤵️

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

b. The incident ray, the normal and the reflected ray, all lie in the same plane.

➡️There are two types of reflection :⤵️

a. Specular/ Regular reflection

b. Diffused/ Irregular reflection

➡️ Refraction of light ⤵️

The phenomenon of change in the direction of light when it passes from one transparent medium to another is called refraction.

➡️Laws of Refraction of Light⤵️

➡️The incident ray refracted ray, nd the normal to the interface of two media at the point of incidence all lie on the same plane.

➡️The ratio of the sine of the angle of incidence to the sine of the angle of refraction is a constant. This is also known as Snell’s law of refraction.

This law is also known as Snell 's law of refraction .
