Yes. Light follows the law of signs and Sin(I)/vi = Sin(R)/vr . Because vi=vr the angles are equal. This important law in physics is often stated as follows: Angle of Reflection = Angle of Incidence
the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection
The angle between the light ray and the normal (perpendicular) to the surface at the point of reflection.
The angle of the reflected ray with the normal line to the surface of the mirror is the same as the angle of incidence. Snell's law.
A line of reflection is a reflected line, often off of a mirror. If a flashlight sends a beam of light at a mirror (the light is called the incident beam), the angle at which it hits the mirror will equall the angle at which the reflected beam of light (called the reflected beam), exits the mirror. This is called the Law of Reflection. This is why light is reflected from a mirror at the same angle at which light struck its surface. A line of reflection is a reflected line, often off of a mirror.

yes.
Only about 4% is reflected, the rest is transmitted. 3. (29.1) When light strikes perpendicular to the surface of a pane of glass, how much light is reflected and how much is transmitted? Normal to the surface refers to a line that is drawn perpendicular to the surface (90°).
REFLECTION... (this is the right answer for: A ray of light strikes a flat surface of water. The angle that the reflected light ray makes with the normal is called the angle of? )if not incident ray.
It is reflected at the same angle to the normal. The normal is a line perpendicular to the surface.they break
The angle of approach and the reflected angle is always the same.
Whenever light hits a water surface, some of the light is reflected off, and some of it is refracted, or "bent", deeper into the water. The proportion that is reflected and refracted depends on the wavelength of the light and the angle of incidence. When light goes straight down into the water, most of it penetrates the surface and goes into the water. When the light impacts at an angle, more of the light is reflected away.
Light can be reflected because it bounces off a surface at an angle.
The light rays gets reflected in the same angle. Angle between normal and the incident ray is called angle of incident and angle between normal and reflected ray is called angle of relection. Normal is an imagenary perpendicular line on the reflecting surface. Angle of incidence is alway equal to angle of reflection.
When light bounces off something, it is reflected.
Light hitting a flat mirror at an angle is reflected at the same angle, relative to the mirror surface.
It is reflected at the same angle it hit the mirror at
A ray of light which strikes the surface is called incident ray and a surface which is reflected is called a reflected ray
the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection
