Question

if there is only 1 ray of light can it be reflected? why explain..​

Answer 1

Answer :-

Light reflects from a smooth surface at the same angle as it hits the surface. For a smooth surface, reflected light rays travel in the same direction. This is called specular reflection. Most of the things we see are because light from a source has reflected off it. Since the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection are the same or equal, a beam of parallel rays falling on a smooth surface is reflected as a beam of parallel light rays in one direction only.

Answer 2

Correct answer:-

In diffuse reflection, a parallel beam of incident light is reflected in different directions. In this case, the parallel incident rays do not remain parallel after reflection, they are scattered in different directions. It is also known as irregular reflection or scattering and so, takes place from rough surfaces like that of paper, cardboard, chalk, table, chair, walls and unpolished metal objects. Since, the angle of incidence and angle of reflection are different, the parallel rays of light falling on a rough surface go in different directions as explained above in the figure.

hope it helps ✅✅✅
