Question:

Which of the following is a law of reflection of light?

Options:

The angle of incidence is not equal to the angle of reflection

The incident ray, the normal to the mirror at the point of incidence and the reflected ray, all lie in the different plane

The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection

The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of refraction

Correct Answer:

The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection

Explanation:

A highly polished surface, such as a mirror, reflects most of the light falling on it.

Two laws of Reflection of light are:

(i) The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.

(ii) The incident ray, the normal to the mirror at the point of incidence and the reflected ray, all lie in the same plane
