What happens when a beam of light hits a flat mirror at a forty five degree angle?
It is reflected 90 degrees from its original direction.
If light hits a smooth hard surface at a 35 degree angle at what angle will it reflect of the surface?
By convention angles are measured from the normal to the reflecting surface. The angle of incidence, 35 degrees, is equal to the angle of reflection. In this case 35 degrees. The answer is 35 degrees.

What will be the angle of reflection if a ray of light is incident towards a plane mirror at an angle of 30 degrees with the mirror surface?
If the ray hits the mirror at an angle of 30 degrees with the mirror surface, the complementary angle that the ray makes with the normal (perpendicular) to the mirror at the point of incidence is (90 - 30) = 60 degrees and since angle of incidence is equal to angle of reflection in a plane mirror, the angle of reflection is 60 degrees.
What is the angle of reflection of a light ray that hits a mirror at a 48-degree angle from the normal line?
96 degress? If the light ray is straight, and if the mirror isn't bent, then the angle of reflection is exactly 48 degrees, the same number of degrees as the angle of incidence. That's the law of reflection.
What happens to the direction of a light ray as it moves from air into Perspex?
what happens is the light is refracted or bent to the normal as in the other surface the line is refracted away from the normal refracted light coming out of the perspex block is parallel to the incident light refraction is caused as the light hits the block from a different angle lets say 25 degrees the particles are normally all lined up and go the same speed but as it hots the block from a different angle one particle will hit first the block and then the next and so on making each particle separate causing it to bend.
Of a wave hits a smooth surface at an angle of incidence of 40 degrees the angle of reflection is?
40 DEGREES
If a wave hits a smooth surface at an angle of incidence at of 40 degrees the angle of reflection is?
40 degrees
What happens when a beam of light hits a flat mirror at a forty five degree angle?
It is reflected 90 degrees from its original direction.
If a wave hits a smooth surface at an angel of incidence of 40 degrees the angle of reflection is?
The angle of reflection is 40 degrees. The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.
What happens to the energy when sunlight hits earth at an angle smaller than ninety degrees?
THE energy is spread out over a larger area and is less intense
What happens when light hits water at an angle?
fills up it
What does the law reflection say?
the angle of the ray of reflection is equal to the angle of the ray of incidence, in other word if a light wave hits glass at an angle of 30 degrees, the angle of reflection will also be 30 degrees
An acute angle could measure exactly 90 degrees?
No, an acute angle must measure between 0 and 90 degrees exclusive. So if it were 89.999999999 degrees, it is still an acute angle, but once the degree hits 90, it can only be a right angle.
If light hits a smooth hard surface at a 35 degree angle at what angle will it reflect of the surface?
By convention angles are measured from the normal to the reflecting surface. The angle of incidence, 35 degrees, is equal to the angle of reflection. In this case 35 degrees. The answer is 35 degrees.

What is a angle called that is over 190 degrees?
An obtuse angle. There cannot be an angle with more than 180 degrees so it starts to count backwards when it hits 180. So instead of having a 190 degree angle, you have a 170 degree angle.
