Question

In geometric optics, the law of reflection states that O O O O O if light pushes on a mirror, the mirror will push back on light with equal and opposite force. the angle red light makes with a surface is different from the angle violet light would make. the angle of reflection from a surface is equal to twice the angle of incidence on the surface. the angle light makes with the normal of a reflecting surface is equal before and after reflection. the angle light makes with the normal of a smooth and flat surface is a universal constant.

Explanation / Answer

Law of reflection is that for a ray of light, angle of incidence will always be equal to the angle of reflection. also incident ray, reflected ray and normal to the surface all lie in the same plane.

from above definition

Correct option is D.
