Question 1
FA student shines a ray of light at a plane mirror.
The Figure shows the ray of light hitting the mirror and being reflected.
Figure
a.[1]
Name the dashed line drawn at 90∘ 90^\circ\,90∘ to the mirror.
b.[1]

c.[1]
State the angle of reflection.
d.[2]
The student replaces the mirror with a sheet of white paper.
Describe how the light reflected by the paper is different from the light reflected by the mirror. Give a reason for your answer.
