In this video we cover:
– The three things that may happen when a wave hits the boundary between two materials
– How to draw ray diagrams, including the angle of incidence, the normal, and the angle of reflection
– That the angle of incidence is always equal to the angle of reflection
– How different boundary shapes give rise to different types of reflection
– The difference between specular reflection and diffuse (or scattered) reflection
