Answer:
Types of Reflection of Light
Different types of reflection of light are briefly discussed below:
Regular reflection is also known as specular reflection
Diffused reflection
Multiple reflection
Answer:
Explanation:
There are basically 2 types of reflection:-
1) Regular Reflection:-
In this type of reflection, parallel beams of light falls on a plane reflecting surface and after reflection, these rays reflect back equally which means that before reflection, they are parallel to each other and after reflection also they are parallel to each other.
For better Understanding of Regular reflection, see fig.1
2) Irregular Reflection:-
In this type of reflection, parallel beams of light fall on an uneven surface and after reflection, these rays do not reflect back equally, i.e.. before reflection the rays are parallel to each other, but after reflecting from an uneven surface, the reflected rays are not parallel to each other.
For better Understanding of Irregular Reflection, see fig.2
Note:- When I meant the reflected rays are not parallel to each other doesn't means that Law of Reflection is violating, it just simply means that if 4 rays before reflection were parallel, then after reflecting from an uneven surface, they are no longer parallel to each other. Law of reflection is never violated. [See fig.2]
Extra Point:- These Points may help you for some exams:-
1) Other Name of Regular Reflection is "Spectacular Reflection".
2) Other Name of Irregular Reflection is " Diffused Reflection".
Note:- You will find fig.1 and fig.2 attached with the answer
