Answer to Problem 1E
The initial light ray and reflected light ray both makes an angle of
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
It is given in the description of diagram that the mirrors makes an angle of
Since the initial ray is parallel to the horizontal and the mirror makes an angle of
Angle made by the initial ray with the normal of mirror is
According to law of reflection reflected ray makes the same angle with the normal of incidence surface as the angle made by the incident ray with the normal of incidence surface. Hence, reflected light ray makes an angle of
Now the angle made by the reflected light ray with the mirror is
Therefore,
The initial light ray and reflected light ray both makes an angle of
