If light hits a mirror at an angle it reflects back at you but it will make the image look bigger or smaller (if the mirror is concave or convex). If it is a flat plane mirror the image is the same but if your holding something it will be on the opposite side
the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection
yes.
It reflects at like 45 degrees I think. No, it reflects off at the same angle it hits the mirror. If the light wave hits the mirror at a 30o angle on the left side, it will reflect off at a 30o angle on the right side. Scientists usually measure these angles from an imaginary line perpendicular to the mirror at the point where the light wave hits the reflecting surface; sounds awkward, but it makes the math easier.
The angle of reflection will be equal to the angle of incidence. This is known as the law of reflection, which states that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.
When a light ray strikes a mirror, it reflects off the mirror's surface following the law of reflection, which states that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. This causes the reflected ray to bounce off the mirror at the same angle as the incident ray, creating a clear image if the mirror is smooth and flat.
When light with normal incidence strikes a mirror, it reflects back at the same angle in the opposite direction. This is known as specular reflection, where the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.
The angle of incidence of mirrors is the angle between the incident ray (incoming light ray) and the normal (perpendicular line) to the surface of the mirror at the point where the ray strikes the mirror.
A convex mirror does not refract light; it reflects it. When an incident ray strikes a convex mirror, it reflects back in a way that obeys the law of reflection—angle of incidence equals angle of reflection. This creates a virtual image that appears behind the mirror.
When light hits a mirror, it is reflected back with the same angle as it hit the mirror. This is known as the law of reflection. The angle of incidence (incoming light) is equal to the angle of reflection (reflected light).
When a light ray strikes a flat mirror, it reflects off the mirror at the same angle it hit the mirror but in the opposite direction. This process is called specular reflection. The incident angle equals the reflected angle, and the image formed is virtual and upright.
When a light ray is directed at a mirror, it reflects off the mirror's surface. The angle of incidence (the angle between the incoming light ray and the normal to the mirror's surface) will be equal to the angle of reflection (the angle between the reflected light ray and the normal). This follows the law of reflection.
This is known as the law of reflection. According to this law, the angle at which light hits a mirror is equal to the angle at which it reflects off the mirror.
When a ray of light falls on a plane mirror, it undergoes reflection. The angle at which the light ray strikes the mirror is equal to the angle at which it reflects off the mirror. This allows us to see a reflected image of the object from which the light ray originates.
When light strikes a mirror, it reflects off the mirror surface, resulting in a "bounce" effect. The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection based on the law of reflection. Mirrors do not absorb light like opaque materials and do not create shadows like opaque objects.
The angle at which light strikes a surface is known as the angle of incidence. It is the angle between the incident ray (incoming light) and the normal (a line perpendicular to the surface).
