reflection mirror

• reflection is the bouncing back of light into the same medium it has been travelling after striking a surface
• why do these mirror behave differently?


  its because of the law of reflection
• the law of reflection:

  1. incident ray, reflected ray and normal line lie on the same plane surface
  2. the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection
• regular reflection is defined as light reflected from a smooth surface at a definite angle and is always reflected in the same direction
• diffused reflection is produced by a rough surface that tend to reflect light in all direction
