Question

Define the following terms for a plane mirror incident ray reflected ray normal angle of incidence and angle of reflection .

Answer 1

Answer:

1) Incident ray is the ray of light that falls on the surface of plane mirror.

2) Reflected ray is the ray that which bounces back after striking the mirror surface or we can say the ray which comes back from the mirror surface after refection is called reflected ray.

3) Angle of incidence is the angle which is made by the incident ray with the normal point.

4) Angle of reflection is the angle which is made by the reflected ray with the normal point.
