WHAT IS MULTIPLE REFLECTION
Introduction to definition of reflection: Reflection is the phenomenon of bouncing back of the ray of light, from the surface on which the light ray is projected. We can define this in more elaborated form as “Reflection is the change in direction of a wave when strike at an interface between two different mediums so that the wave returns into the medium from which it originated”. Common examples include the when light ray incident on the mirror; it will be reflected back in the same median. The daily use example of multi Reflection of light is the Image we see in the mirror. This is the result of the multi reflection of the light. Properties if Reflection: Phenomenon of MULTI REFLECTION of Light: When the light ray is made to reflect at different surfaces then the phenomenon of multi reflection of light came in to play. Let us imagine there are two mirrors AB and CD, inclined at an angle of 900 with each other. The when an object is placed in between them then the First image will be formed in mirror AB as X1. This image will act the object for mirror CD and its image will be X2. Also the object had image in mirror CD and that is X3. This image will also behave as object for AB and had image X4. But here the two images X2 and X4 will overlap each other and will be identical as single image. So total 3 different images will be there for one object. In this, we can find the number of images when two mirrors are inclined at some angle. Multiple Reflection of Light
