Explain in brief and simple. ​

Answer 1

Though both a plane mirror and a sheet of paper reflect light but we can see the image of our face in a plane mirror but not in a sheet of paper as images are formed by reflection of light which takes place in case of a plane mirror. In case of a sheet of paper, diffuse reflection takes place.

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

There are 2 types of reflection.

1. Smooth : In smooth surface

2. Diffused: In rough surface

In mirror the surface is very smooth thus all parallel rays of incident light get reflected parallely whereas in paper the diffused reflection occurs that is rays of light aren't reflected parallely thus the image is not formed properly.
