Answer:
Among all the given options the incorrect one is option (D): If the angle of incidence is 35 then the angle of reflection is 55.
Explanation:
- The phenomenon where a ray of light approaching a smooth surface bounces back, is said reflection of light.
- There are two laws of reflection. The laws state as:
- The normal, incident ray and reflected ray must be on the same plane or surface.
- The angle of incidence must be the same as the angle of reflection and both the rays (i.e, incident ray and reflected ray) should be on the opposite sides of the normal.
- So, the first option abides by the law of reflection and so does the second and third option, making them correct statements.
- But the fourth option i.e, option (D) is incorrect as it does not follows the law of reflection
The angle of incident ≠ Angle of reflection
∴ 35⁰ ≠ 45⁰
Thus, the incorrect statement regarding the reflection of light is an option (D) among all the other options.
