Answer:
B) the law of reflection
Step-by-step explanation:
When a light ray reflects off a surface, it obeys the law of reflection.
A few definitions before giving the law of reflection:
- The angle of incidence is defined as the angle between the incident ray and the normal to the surface
- The angle of reflection is defined as the angle between the reflected ray and the normal to the surface
The law of reflection states that:
- The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection
- The incident ray and the reflected ray lie both on the same plane.
