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 is the difference between incident ray and the reflected ray?
incident ray-the light ray striking a reflecting surface is called the incident ray. reflected ray-the light ray obtained after reflection from the surface, in the same medium in which the incident ray is travelling , is called the reflected ray.
How do you measure angle of incidence and angle of reflection?
the angle of incidence is the angle measured between the normal and the incident ray.. the angle of reflection is the angle measured between the reflected ray and the normal..
What is angle of incident if the reflected ray is 90 degree to incident ray?
The angle of incident is 45 degrees. The incident and reflected ray have the same magnitude and if the sum of the magnitudes is 90 degrees the incident is 45 degrees.
Is there a fixed relationship between a incident ray and a reflected ray?
Yes. The angle of incidence and reflection are equal.
