When the incident angle equals the transmitted angle?
Either when they are both 0 degrees (the incident ray is perpendicular to the surface) or the refractive indices of the two media are the same.Either when they are both 0 degrees (the incident ray is perpendicular to the surface) or the refractive indices of the two media are the same.Either when they are both 0 degrees (the incident ray is perpendicular to the surface) or the refractive indices of the two media are the same.Either when they are both 0 degrees (the incident ray is perpendicular to the surface) or the refractive indices of the two media are the same.
What happen when a ray of light falls perpendicular to the surface of mirror?
it reflects
Why a light ray falling perpendicular on a medium does not reflect?
It DOES reflect. Straight back to where it came from.
What is the angle formed by a light ray coming into a mirror?
The angle between the ray and the perpendicular to the mirror (NOT the mirror itself), at the point where the ray hits the mirror is called the angle of incidence.
How do you measure the angles of incidence and reflection?
They are the angles made by the incident ray and the reflected ray with the line perpendicular to the reflecting surface at the point of reflection.
What of a segment is a line segment or ray that is perpendicular to a segment at its midpoint?
Perpendicular Bisector
What is the line perpendicular to a reflecting surface where the incident ray ends and the reflected ray begins called?
The line perpendicular to a reflecting surface where the incident ray ends and the reflected ray begins is called the normal line.
What is a line segments or ray that passes through the midpoint of a side and is perpendicular to the side?
A perpendicular bisector.
What is an angle of reflection?
An angle of reflection is the angle between the reflected ray and the surface normal (a line perpendicular to the surface) at the point of reflection. It is equal to the angle of incidence (angle between the incident ray and the surface normal) in accordance with the law of reflection.
What is the name of the line drawn perpendicular to the surface where a light ray strike?
A normal line is the name of the line drawn perpendicular to the surface where a light ray strikes.
What is the name of the line drawn perpendicular to the surface where light ray strikes?
A normal line is the name of the line drawn perpendicular to the surface where a light ray strikes.
What is the angle between ray that strikes a surface and the perpendicular to that surface at the point of contact?
The angle between the ray that strikes a surface and the perpendicular to that surface at the point of contact is known as the angle of incidence. It is measured from the ray to the perpendicular line and is important in determining how light is reflected or refracted at that surface.
What does normal ray mean?
This usually refers to a light ray that hits a surface at 90 degrees, or perpendicular. In physical science the word "normal" is often used to mean perpendicular.
What is the line perpendicular to a mirror's surface?
The normal (ray).

What is the angle of incidence for this ray of light?
The angle of incidence is the angle between the incident ray and the normal (perpendicular line) to the surface the ray is striking.
In reflection what is the normal?
In reflection, the normal is a line that is perpendicular to a surface at the point where the light ray strikes. It is used to determine the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection of a light ray.
