Bouncing light
Aim:
To investigate how light behaves when it hits a plane (flat) mirror.
Method:
1. Collect a ray box, power supply and 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.

Finding: The angle of incidence is the same as the angle of reflection.
