Key Facts about Light

Light is a transverse wave.
Transverse waves have vibrations perpendicular to the direction of wave travel.
Light travels at 300 000 000 m/s (the speed of light).
Light is part of the electromagnetic spectrum, which contains seven types of transverse waves.

Specular Reflection

Specular reflection occurs when light reflects from a very smooth surface, like a mirror.
The incident ray is the ray approaching the surface.
The normal is an imaginary line drawn at 90° to the surface.
The angle of incidence is the angle between the incident ray and the normal.
The reflected ray leaves the surface; its angle with the normal is the angle of reflection.
The law of reflection states: angle of incidence = angle of reflection.

Diffuse Reflection

Diffuse reflection happens when light reflects from a rough surface.
Rays are reflected at many different angles because the surface is uneven.
The law of reflection still holds for each individual ray (angle i = angle r).
The overall effect is that the reflected light is scattered, not focused.

The Law of Reflection

The law of reflection applies to all waves, not just light.
It can be stated as: angle of incidence = angle of reflection.
Both angles are measured from the normal, not from the surface.

Specular reflection showing incident ray, reflected ray, normal, and equal angles of incidence and reflection.
