Video: Law of Reflection Sample Diagram
Printer Friendly Version
The
Law of Reflection
states that when waves are reflected from an interface, the angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection. The purpose of this lab is to experimentally verify this outcome. Given below are a sample screen capture and an accompanying image showing an example of the corresponding ray and angle constructions.
Sample original screen capture:
