What happens to the angle of reflected light rays as the angle of incident light rays becomes steeper?

The angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection. Therefore, if your angle of incidence is 15 degrees, your angle of reflection equals that also. If it is 45 degrees, your angle of reflection is also 45 degrees, and so on.

What is a steeper slope?
In algebra, as in the physical world, steeper means closer to vertical.
What does slope the math term mean?
The slope of a line is the vertical change when you move one unit to the left or right.With a larger slope, a line becomes steeper, and with a smaller slope it becomes more shallow. y=mx+b This is an equation for a line. It's called the point-slope form. In this equation, m is the slope.
Steeper lines have a?
larger slope if positive and a smaller slope if negative
When measuring density what does a steeper line on your graph mean?
it is less dense
Change in slope affects graph how?
makes line steeper or flatter
What happens when contour lines get closer?
The terrain becomes steeper.
If a line on a distance-time graph becomes steeper what has happened to the speed of the object?
It has increased.
What happens to the contour lines when land gets steeper?
They get closer together.
What happens to the graph as the coefficient increases?
Most graphs will become steeper as the coefficient increases.
What happens on a topographic map the closer the contour lines get?
The closer the contour lines, the steeper is the slope.
Steeper lines have a what slope than that of flatter lines?
Flatter lines have a _____ slope than that of steeper lines
How much effort is needed if the length of the inclined plane is shorter?
As an inclined plane gets shorter, the angle gets steeper and the effort becomes greater.
What happens to waves in shallow water?
When waves travel into areas of shallow water, they begin to be affected by the ocean bottom. The free orbital motion of the water is disrupted, and water particles in orbital motion no longer return to their original position. As the water becomes shallower, the swell becomes higher and steeper, ultimately assuming the familiar sharp-crested wave shape.
Which is steeper...a slope of -1 or a slope of -3?
A slope of -3 is steeper.
What is a steeper slope?
In algebra, as in the physical world, steeper means closer to vertical.
What happens to a line when the slope gets bigger and bigger?
As m, in the equation y=mx+b, gets bigger the line begins to get steeper.
What is the steeper slope 30 percent or 15 percent?
30% is steeper than 15% slope.
