Tips and tricks

When a plane mirror is fixed and the incident ray is rotated by 10 clockwise the reflected ray will rotate by?

When a plane mirror is fixed and the incident ray is rotated by 10 clockwise the reflected ray will rotate by?

Therfore the reflected ray will roatte by 2 x15 = 30 degrees.

What is the angle of reflection if the angle of incidence is 10 degrees?

80o
If the light makes an angle of 10o with the surface, it makes an angle of 80o with the normal to the surface. Thus the angle of incidence is 80o. According to the law of reflection, the angle of reflection equals the angle of incidence. So the angle of reflection (measured to the normal) is 80o.

When the incident ray strikes the mirror makes an angle 30 degree with the mirror then the angle between incident ray and reflected ray is?

60∘
Since angle between mirror and normal is 90∘ and reflected ray (RR) makes an angle of 30∘ with the normal so required angle will be θ=60∘.

When a plane mirror reflects a ray of incident light is rotated through an angle 10 degrees the reflected ray is rotated through?

Answer: C- The reflected ray rotates through an angle 2θ.

What is the angle by which the reflected ray turns?

Answer: The reflected ray turns twice the angle through which mirror is turned ,i.e.30°.

What is the angle of reflection when the incident ray makes an angle of 30 0 with the normal?

The incident ray will have an angle of reflection of 30 degrees (made with a surface normal to the mirror surface). The reflected ray will make an angle of 60 degrees (90 – 30 degrees) with the mirror surface.

What angle in degrees does the incident ray make with respect to the normal?

The normal line makes a 90 degree angle with the mirror surface. The incident ray divides this 90 degree angle into two smaller angles – the angle of incidence and the angle between the mirror surface and the incident ray. The sum of these angle measures is equal to 90 degrees.

What angle does a reflected ray travel through a mirror?

If the mirror is rotated through an angle of 30deg perpendicular to the plane of incidence; then the reflected ray will be deflected through 60 degree. If the light ray is incident on a mirror and the mirror is rotated by an angle theta then the reflected ray rotates which angle?

What is the angle of incidence when a mirror is rotated?

Rotating the mirror means the normal is rotated by 2 degrees. If initially the angle of incidence was x, now the angle of incidence is x+2 with respect to the new normal. Now the new reflected ray is at angle x+2 with the new normal, which itself is at angle 2 degrees with the old normal.

When the incident ray is rotated 30 ∘ clockwise?

When the incident ray is rotated 10 ∘ clockwise while the mirror is steady, the reflected ray is rotated 10 ∘ anticlockwise. Now when the mirror is rotated 30 ∘ clockwise, the reflected ray is rotated 60 ∘ clockwise.

What is the angle of incidence between the incident and reflected rays?

The answer to this is really simple…. Since angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection, we can also say that angle between the incident ray and reflected ray is twice the angle of reflection or incidence. Thus, as per above case angle of incidence =(90/2) = 45 degree. Hope that helps. Thank you.
