Question

What are
types of reflections.​

Answer 1

there are two type of reflection

i) regular reflection

ii) iregullar reflection

Answer 2

Reflection of light :- Reflection is the bouncing back of light rays on striking the surface. Light is reflected from all surfaces.

Regular Reflection :- When parallel rays of light fall on a smooth surface, they are reflected as parallel rays only. This is called regular reflection.

Irregular Reflection :- When parallel rays of light fall upon an irregular surface, they are reflected into all the directions.This is called Irregular reflection.

Regular Reflection :-

• It is also called specular reflection.

• It leads to the formation of an image.

• For example, the reflection of rays of light through a wall

Irregular Reflection :-

• It is also called diffused reflection.

• It enables us to view different objects present in our environment.

• For example, the image formed by a plane mirror.

The laws of reflection are :-

• The angle of incidence and the angle of reflection are equal. ∟i = ∟r

• Incident ray, reflected ray and the normal drawn at the point of incidence to the reflecting surface, lie in the same plane.

These two laws are applicable to both plane and curved mirrors$.$
