What is a line of reflection?
A line of reflection is a reflected line, often off of a mirror. If a flashlight sends a beam of light at a mirror (the light is called the incident beam), the angle at which it hits the mirror will equall the angle at which the reflected beam of light (called the reflected beam), exits the mirror. This is called the Law of Reflection. This is why light is reflected from a mirror at the same angle at which light struck its surface. A line of reflection is a reflected line, often off of a mirror. If a flashlight sends a beam of light at a mirror (the light is called the incident beam), the angle at which it hits the mirror will equall the angle at which the reflected beam of light (called the reflected beam), exits the mirror. This is called the Law of Reflection. This is why light is reflected from a mirror at the same angle at which light struck its surface.
What is the reflected angle for a light beam hitting a mirror?
The angle of the reflected ray with the normal line to the surface of the mirror is the same as the angle of incidence. Snell's law.
What happens to the light rays as they hit the mirror?
They are reflected at the angle of incidence.
What happens to the light rays as they hit the mirror at an angle?
they are reflected at an equal opposing angle on a first-surface mirror. on a second surface (bathroom mirror) they are also reflected, but some are absorbed/disbursed by impurities and inconsistencies in the glass.
When a plane mirror is rotated by an angle theta what will be the rotation of the reflected light?
2*theta
What is light reflected at after hitting a mirror?
Light is reflected at the same angle it hits the mirror's surface, in accordance with the law of reflection. This means that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.

What happen to the light when its hits 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).
A light ray hitting a mirror at an angle is reflected off at angle?
The angle between the incident ray and the mirror is equal to the angle between the reflected ray and the mirror.
What is the beam of light reflected off the mirror?
The reflected beam of light follows the law of reflection, where the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. This means that the angle at which the light beam hits the mirror will be the same as the angle at which it bounces off the mirror.
What happen to the rays as it hits the surface of the mirror?
When light rays hit the surface of a mirror, they are reflected back at the same angle they hit the mirror. This is known as the law of reflection. The angle of incidence (the angle at which the light ray hits the mirror) is equal to the angle of reflection (the angle at which the light ray is reflected off the mirror).
What happens when a ray of light hits a mirror?
When a ray of light hits a mirror, it gets reflected off the mirror's surface at the same angle that it approached the mirror. This is known as the law of reflection. The angle of incidence (the angle at which the light ray hits the mirror) is equal to the angle of reflection (the angle at which the reflected ray leaves the mirror).
What is the reflected angle for a light beam hitting a mirror?
The angle of the reflected ray with the normal line to the surface of the mirror is the same as the angle of incidence. Snell's law.
What will happen when a ray of light is shone at a mirror?
When a ray of light is shone at a mirror, it will be reflected following the law of reflection, where the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. The reflection will produce a mirror image of the object or light source.
Use the law of reflection to explain why you see only a portion of the area behind you when you look in a mirror?
When you look in a mirror, the law of reflection states that the angle of incidence (the angle at which light hits the mirror) is equal to the angle of reflection (the angle at which light is reflected off the mirror). This means that you see only a portion of the area behind you because light from different parts of the scene is reflected at different angles, resulting in only a subset of the scene being visible in the mirror.
When light reflected in a mirror what is special about the angle of inncident?
It is equal to the angle of reflection.
What happens to a beam of light when you shine it on mirror?
When you shine a beam of light on a mirror, the light is reflected off the mirror's surface. The angle of incidence (the angle at which the light beam hits the mirror) is equal to the angle of reflection (the angle at which the light beam bounces off the mirror). This is known as the law of reflection.
