<span>
<span>When light bounces off an object, it either gets absorbed, or reflected. For example, light can get absorbed on surfaces which are black in color and they can reflect from flat surfaces such as a mirror. It all matters on the angle of incidence. The angle of incidence is also known as the angle of reflection.</span></span>

<span><span /></span><span> Angle of reflection = Angle of incidence</span>

<span /><span>T<span><span>he ray of light approaching the mirror is called the incident ray. The ray of light that leaves the mirror is called the reflected ray.   </span></span></span>

<span><span><span>Hope it helps </span> </span></span>

On Mars gravity is one-third that on Earth. What would be the mass on Mars of a person who has a mass of 90 kilograms (kg) on Ea
snow_tiger [21]

Answer: The person will still have a mass of 90kg on Mars

Explanation: The Truth is, the mass of a body remains constant from place to place. It is the weight which is equal to {mass of body * acceleration due to gravity{g}} that varies from place to place since it is dependent on {g}.

In this case the person will have a Weight of 90*9.8 = 882N on Earth.

{ "g" on Earth is 9.8m/s²}

And a Weight of 90*3.3 = 297N on Mars.

{ From the question "g" on Mars is {9.8m/s²}/3 which is 3.3m/s²}

From this analysis you notice that the WEIGHT of the person Varies but the MASS remained Constant at 90kg.
