A plane wavefront approaches a flat mirror. The angle between the incident wavefront and the mirror is 40°. What is the angle between the reflected wavefront and the mirror?
A standing wave on a string is formed by reflection at both ends. Which condition is required at a fixed end?
Which statement best describes why a rough (matt) surface does not produce a clear reflection?
A light ray strikes a silvered glass made into a convex (diverging) mirror. Which is true of any image formed by a convex mirror for an object in front of it?
Which type of surface will produce a diffuse reflection of light?
Which scenario will produce a clear specular reflection of sound (an “acoustic mirror” echo)?
An echo is heard when sound reflects from a distant cliff. If the cliff is 170 m away and the speed of sound is 340 m/s, how long after the original sound is the echo heard?
Which property of a mirror causes a virtual image to be formed behind a plane mirror?
A sound wave in air strikes a smooth wall and is reflected back. Which statement is true about the reflected sound?
A light ray strikes a mirror at 30° to the normal. What is the angle between the reflected ray and the surface of the mirror?
Which of the following best explains why polished metal makes better specular reflectors than white paint?
