Does diffused reflection mean the failure of the laws of reflection?
Answers
Answer:
Reflected rays are in different direction. Diffused reflection is not due to the failure of the laws of reflection. It is caused by the irregularities in the reflecting surface.

REGULAR AND DIFFUSED REFLECTION - DEFINITION
concept
Regular reflection occurs at the surface of a plane surface like a plane mirror. Reflected rays after regular reflection are parallel.
Diffused reflection occurs at the surface of a rough surface like cardboard. Reflected rays after regular reflection are not parallel.
Note: Laws of reflection are valid in both the cases.In diffused reflection, the reflected rays are not parallel to erach other for parallel incident rays. This happens due to microscopic irregularitied of the reflecting surface. Hence, the parallel incident rays reflect in different directions. However each individual ray obeys the laws of reflection. Hence laws of reflection do not get violated in diffused reflection.
Reflection of light from a rough surface which scatters it in all directions.
