Aim:
To investigate when how light behaves when it hits a plane (flat) mirror.
Method:
1. Collect a ray box, power supply, single-slit ray slide from your teacher, and set them up to produce a single beam of light.
2. Place a plane mirror on the diagram of the protractor as described below.
3. Vary the angle of incidence and record the angle of reflection in the results table.
Results:
Angle of Incidence:
0 degrees
10 degrees
20 degrees
30 degrees
40 degrees
50 degrees
60 degrees
70 degrees
80 degrees
Angle of Reflection:
0 degrees
10 degrees
20 degrees
30 degrees
40 degrees
50 degrees
60 degrees
70 degrees
80 degrees
Findings:
The angle of incidence is the same as the angle of reflection.
