A light wave is reflected from a mirror. The incident and reflected waves superimpose to form stationary waves. But no nodes and antinodes are seen. Why?

A ray of light is incident on a plane mirror at an angle of 40^@ with respect to surface normal. When it gets reflected from the mirror, it undergoes a deviation of

Show that a ray of light reflected from a plane mirror rotates througha an angle 2theta when the mirror is rotated through an angle theta about its axis perpendicular to both the incident ray and the normal to the surface.

A light ray gets reflected from a pair of mutually _|_ mirrors, not necessarily along axes. The intersection point of mirrors is at origin. The incident light ray is along y= x+2 . If the light ray strikes both mirrors in succession, then it may get reflected finally along the line:

A light ray incident on a plane mirror gets reflected from it. Another plane mirror is placed such that the reflected ray from the first mirror is incident on it If the reflected ray from the second mirror travels perpendicular to the indecent ray on the first mirror, determine the angle between two plane mirrors.
