A light ray from an object 'P' is reflected from a mirror as shown in the figure, then

A

angle of incidence is `30^(@)`

B

`PM=MP^(1)`

C

`anglePON=120^(@)`

D

All the above.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D


(i) From figure
`angleTON=90^(@)`
`:.angleTOQ=angler=90^(@)-60^(@)=30^(@)` `:.` angle of reflection `30^(@)`.
But accoding to the laws of reflection, the angle of incidence (i) = the angle of reflection (r). `:.i=30^(@)`
(ii) In case of a plane mirror, object distance=image distance.
(iii) `anglePON=anglePOQ+angleQON`
`=30^(@)+30^(@)+60^(@)`
`=120^(@)`

Interference effects are produced at point P on a screen as a result of direct rays from a 500 nm source and reflected rays from a mirror, as shown in figure. If the sources is 100m to the left of the screen and 1.00 cm above the mirror, find the distance y (in milimeters) to the first dark band above the mirror.
