Question

what is difference between reflection and refraction ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Reflection is the bouncing back of light when it strikes with smooth surface.

Refraction is the bending of light when it enters from one medium to another medium.

Answer 2

$\sf \large{\underline{Reflection:}}$

✰The bouncing back of light is called reflection.

✰The angle of incidence is always equal to angle of reflection.

✰After reflection only one change in direction take place.

✰This phenomenon takes place in mirrors.

✰It only involves single medium.

$\rule{190pt}{2pt}$

$\sf \large{\underline{Refraction:}}$

✰The phenomenon of bending of light is called refraction.

✰ The angle of incidence is not equal to the angle of refraction.

✰ After refraction changes direction and velocity take place.

✰ This phenomenon takes place in lens.

✰ It involves two or more than two images.
