ANGLE OF INCIDENCELight striking a surface is called “incident light.” It becomes “reflected light” when it reflects from the surface. The “angle of incidence” is the angle at which the incident light strikes the surfa [..]

ANGLE OF INCIDENCEThe angle at which X-rays strike a plane in the crystal.
|
28 |
ANGLE OF INCIDENCEAngle of incidence is a technical term that describes the angle of light as it strikes a surface. Understanding the angle of incidence is important when setting reflectors and determining what the angle of reflection is going to be, as they are one and the same.
