Light of wavelength `5000Å` falls on a plane reflecting surface. What are the wavelength and frequency of reflected light ? For what angle of incidence is the reflected ray normal to the incident ray ?

A

`0^(@)`

B

`30^(@)`

C

`90^(@)`

D

`45^(@)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Reflected ray is normal to the incident ray,
`:.i+r=90^(@)`
As `r=i:.2i=90^(@)impliesi=(90^(@))/(2)=45^(@)`
