What happens to a light ray if it is incident on a reflective surface along the normal?

Physics

Bad White [126]2 years ago
4 0

Answer: The incident ray and the reflected ray and the normal will be parallel to each other.

Explanation:

The normal is perpendicular to the surface of the mirror or the reflective surface.

According to the law of reflection which state that:

The angle of incidence is always equal to the angle of reflection on a smooth surface.

If a light ray is incident on a reflective surface along the normal. The angle of incidence will be at 90 degrees which will be perpendicular to the surface of the mirror, the reflected ray will bounce back likewise at the same angle which will be perpendicular to the reflective surface.

Both the incident ray and the reflected ray and the normal will be parallel to each other.

A light-year is the distance light travels in one year (at speed = 2.998 × 108 m/s). (a) how many meters are there in 11.0 light
larisa [96]
<span>The answers are as follows:

(a) how many meters are there in 11.0 light-years?

11.0 light years ( 365 days / 1 year ) ( 24 h / 1 day ) ( 60 min / 1 h ) ( 60 s / 1 min ) ( 2.998x10^8 m/s ) = 1.04x10^17 m

(b) an astronomical unit (au) is the average distance from the sun to earth, 1.50 × 108 km. how many au are there in 11.0 light-years?

1.04x10^17 m ( 1 au / </span>1.50 × 10^8 km <span>) ( 1 km / 1000 m) = 693329.472 au

(c) what is the speed of light in au/h? au/h

</span>2.998 × 10^8 m/s ( 1 au / 1.50 × 10^8 km ) ( 1 km / 1000 m) ( 3600 s / 1 h ) = 7.1952 au/h
