Statement I: A beam of light rays has been reflected from a rough surface.
Statement II: Amplitude of incident and reflected rays would be different.

A

Statement is True, Statement II is True, Statement II is correct explanation for Statement I

B

Statement I is True, Statement II is True, Statement II is NOT a correct explanation for Statement I.

C

Statement I is True, Statement II is False.

D

Statement I is False, Statement II is True.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
b.
Reflection of light rays takes place on rough as well as smooth dsurface. Some light energy would be absorbed by rough surface, so amplitude of reflected ray is less than that of incident ray.
