The angle between the light ray and the normal (perpendicular) to the surface at the point of reflection.
What happens when a ray of light hits a reflective surface like a mirror?
It'll undergo reflection and will get reflected back
Which smooth surfaces reflect light?
Any smooth surface will reflect light. The better question is "How much light does each kind of smooth surface reflect?"
How is a reflection formed?
a reflection is formed when rays of light bounces off an object onto a smooth shiny surface (such that light rays are reflected off at the same angles) and reflects off it into our eyes.when the surface is rough there wouldn't be a reflection as lights rays from an object is reflected off the rough surface at different angles and does not enter our eyes
