This quiz contains 7 questions from a mix of 1 subtopics.
Which type of reflection occurs when light reflects from smooth, glossy surfaces like mirrors?
scattered reflection
specular reflection
diffuse reflection
irregular reflection
|
In diffuse reflection, the incoming rays of light are:
absorbed by the surface
reflected at the same angle
scattered in many directions
reflected in a single direction
|
According to the law of reflection, what is the relationship between the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection?
the angle of incidence is always greater than the angle of reflection
the angle of incidence is always smaller than the angle of reflection
the angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection
there is no relationship between the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection
|
What is the term for the angle between the incident ray and the normal?
|
What is the term for the angle between the reflected ray and the normal?
|
Explain the difference between specular reflection and diffuse reflection.
|
State the law of reflection and explain how the angles are measured.
