The angle of reflection is equal to which the following?

48% Answer Correctly

focal point

90°

refractive index

angle of incidence


Solution

The law of reflection specifies how waves, including light waves, bounce off of surfaces. Specifically, the angle of incidence of the approaching wave is equal to the angle of reflection of the reflected wave as measured from a line perpendicular (90°) to the surface.

The energy posessed by a thrown baseball is an example of what kind of energy?

79% Answer Correctly

gravitational

potential

transitional

kinetic
