To solve the question regarding the role of a white sheet of paper in the experiment of reflection of light, we can break it down into steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Reflection of Light**: - Reflection of light occurs when light rays bounce off a surface. The angle at which the light hits the surface (angle of incidence) is equal to the angle at which it reflects off (angle of reflection). 2. **Identifying the Surface**: ...
