Question

Ramesh throws incident ray at an angle of incidence 30 degree on the mirror. What will be the angle of reflection? ​

Answer 1

the angle of reflection will also be 30 degree

Explanation:

the angle of incidence is always equal to the angle of reflection.

This is one of the law of reflection

Answer 2

The angle of reflection will be $30^{o}$.

Explanation:

• Reflection is a particle property of light.

• When sunlight is incident on any material, it either reflects, refracts or disperse. A ray of light undergoes reflection when it is incident on a polished surface.

• A light ray obeys laws of reflection which says that the angle of incidence is equal to angle of reflection.

• Angle of incidence is the angle made by incident ray with the normal.

• Angle of reflection is the angle made by reflected ray with normal.

• Here the angle of incident is $30^{o}$ and according to law of reflection, the angle of reflection will be $30^{o}$.
