laws of reflection
1Reflection (physics) — Reflection is the change in direction of a wave front at an between two different media so that the wave front returns into the medium from which it originated. Common examples include the reflection of light, sound and water waves. Law of… …
2Reflection seismology — (or seismic reflection) is a method of exploration geophysics that uses the principles of seismology to estimate the properties of the Earth s subsurface from reflected seismic waves. The method requires a controlled seismic source of energy,… …

4Total internal reflection — The larger the angle to the normal, the smaller is the fraction of light transmitted, until the angle when total internal reflection (blue line) occurs. (The color of the rays is to help distinguish the rays, and is not meant to indicate any… …
5Specular reflection — is the perfect, mirror like reflection of light (or sometimes other kinds of wave) from a surface, in which light from a single incoming direction (a ray) is reflected into a single outgoing direction. Such behavior is described by the law of… …
