5.1 Reflection, refraction and lenses (physics only)

Card 1 of 24

From which line are angles of incidence, reflection and refraction measured?

A

A colour filter can only transmit wavelengths already present in the incident light.

B

Yes - each ray obeys i=ri=ri=r at its local normal.

C

A ray travelling along the normal has i=0∘i=0^\circi=0∘ and follows the same path after reflection.

D

From the normal.
