Answer:

In reflection, the waves bounce off the surface. On the contrary, in refraction, the waves pass through the surface, that changes their speed and direction. In reflection, the angle of incidence is same as the angle of reflection. ... Reflection takes place in mirrors, while refraction occurs in lenses.

❣️​Hola mate,

❣️​Here is your answer.. :)❤

In reflection, light ray falling on the plane returns to the same medium.

In refraction, the ray falling on the plane travels from one medium to another.

Explanation:

Difference between Reflection and Refraction  are as follows

  • Reflection  :This phenomenon usually occurs in mirrors.
  • Refraction  : This phenomenon usually occurs in Lenses.

  • Reflection  :Reflection can simply be defined as the reflection of light when it strikes the medium on a plane.
  • Refraction  : Refraction can be defined as the process of shift of light when it passes through a medium leading to the bending of light.

  • Reflection  : The light entering the medium returns back in the same direction.
  • Refraction  : The light entering the medium travels from one medium to another.

  • Reflection  : Considering the light waves, they bounce from the plane and change direction.
  • Refraction  : The light waves pass through the surface while simultaneously change from medium to medium.

  • Reflection  : The angle of incidence of the light is equal to the angle of reflection.
  • Refraction  : The angle of incidence is not equal to the angle of reflection.
