What is the name of the line drawn perpendicular to the surface where light ray strikes?
A normal line is the name of the line drawn perpendicular to the surface where a light ray strikes.
As a ray of light passes from air into glass the angle it makes with the surface normal will?
REFLECTION... (this is the right answer for: A ray of light strikes a flat surface of water. The angle that the reflected light ray makes with the normal is called the angle of? )if not incident ray.
How does light behave when it strikes a smooth surface?
It is reflected at the same angle to the normal. The normal is a line perpendicular to the surface.they break
When describing image formation in lenses what is the angle of incidence?
incidence : it means the angle that goes in a objectrefracted : is where it changes inside an objectemergence : is the angle that come out the objectWhen the incoming light ray hits a plane, the angle of incidence is the angle between the incoming light ray and the normal of the plane at where the ray hits.
What is the law of relection?
States tha the angle the incoming waves makes with thee normal to the relecting surface.
What is the name of the line drawn perpendicular to the surface where light ray strikes?
A normal line is the name of the line drawn perpendicular to the surface where a light ray strikes.
What is the name of the line drawn perpendiculars to the surface where the light rays strikes?

What is the angle that light strikes a surface?
That is known as the angle of incidence. It is measured from the normal, which is a imaginary line perpendicular to the surface at the point where the light wave contacts the surface.
What is the angle between the normal and the surface of a mirror?
The angle between the normal and the surface of anything is by definition always 90 degrees, regardless of whether it is a mirror, a piece of concrete, a wooden plank, etc.
What happen to light rays as it strikes a smooth and shiny surface liike mirror?
The light rays gets reflected in the same angle. Angle between normal and the incident ray is called angle of incident and angle between normal and reflected ray is called angle of relection. Normal is an imagenary perpendicular line on the reflecting surface. Angle of incidence is alway equal to angle of reflection.
What is the name of the line drawn perpendicular to the surface where a light ray strike?
A normal line is the name of the line drawn perpendicular to the surface where a light ray strikes.
What is the name of the line drawn perpendicular to the surface where light rays strike?
A normal line is the name of the line drawn perpendicular to the surface where a light ray strikes.
What is a line perpendicular to a surface called?
The line perpendicular to a surface at a point is called the normal
