G7 Physics - Reflection of light - Practice for final exam

During reflection off a smooth surface, the angle of incidence is

equivalent to the angle of reflection.

• True

• False

The normal is an imaginary line that is perpendicular to the mirror.

• True

• False

The incident ray, reflected ray and the normal all lie on the

same plane

• True

• False

An image in the mirror is laterally inverted as compared to the actual object.

• True

• False

The image formed is virtual.

• True

• False

The distance between the image and the mirror is the same as

the distance between the actual object and the mirror.

• True

• False

The image formed is smaller than the actual object

• True

• False

Describe how a periscope works. Draw a diagram of it

it is being reflected in the plane mirror.

a) Draw the normal in the diagram below. (1)

b) Draw and label on the diagram the angle of incidence <i. (1)

c) Draw and label the reflected ray. (3)
