Question

what is reflection of light
​

Answer 1

Answer:

The process of sending back light rays which fall on the surface of an object, is called reflection of light.

Answer 2

Answer:

When a ray of light approaches a smooth polished surface and the light ray bounces back, it is called the reflection of light. The incident light ray which lands upon the surface is said to be reflected off the surface. The ray that bounces back is called the reflected ray. If a perpendicular were to be drawn on reflecting surface, it would be called normal.

Reflection of light is the phenomenon of bouncing back of light in the same medium on striking the surface of any object.
