An incident Ray makes 60 degrees angle with the surface of the plane mirror, what is the angle of refraction. Options are...a 60 b 90 c 30 d 0....this is a question in a guide is it correct
measured to the normal, it will be refraced to the normal, so it will be in the glass, bent toward the normal, so then the q is where is the angle of refraction measured to, and it is normally to the normal, so the angle of incidence was 30, bent to the normal, it has to be less than 30 https://www.google.com/search?q=refreaction+ray+diagrams&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8
No, the given options are incorrect. The angle of refraction cannot be determined based solely on the incident angle with a plane mirror because refraction only occurs at the boundary between two different transparent mediums. Therefore, the correct answer cannot be determined from the given information.
To solve this problem, we need to understand the basic principles of reflection and refraction.
In reflection, when a ray of light strikes a plane mirror, it follows the law of reflection, which states that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. Therefore, in this case, if the incident ray makes a 60-degree angle with the surface of the plane mirror, the angle of reflection will also be 60 degrees.
However, the question asks for the angle of refraction, which suggests that there is a refractive medium involved. Refraction occurs when light passes from one medium to another, and the light rays change direction due to the change in speed.
Since a plane mirror does not involve any change in medium, there is no refraction taking place. The correct answer is d) 0, as there is no angle of refraction in this scenario.
Therefore, it seems that the question in your guide might be incorrect or misleading.
