...plane in: at the point n, it will rebound from it in an angle equal to that in which it struck it ; or the angle of incidence will be equal to the angle of reflection ; namely, the angle ABD equal to the angle KHE. Let AB express the force of the body A in the direction...

...of the fluid on one side with that on the other. The motion on each side will then be reflected, and the angle of incidence will be equal to the angle of reflection. 8. I propose now to adduce an application of the proposition above demonstrated (Art. 3.) respecting...

...Thus, a ray falling on a reflecting surface will be thrown off from that surface in such a manner that the angle of incidence will be equal to the angle of reflection.* This is the fundamental law of catoptrics or reflected light. 562. An incident ray is a ray proceeding...

In the first case, Captain Fishbourne has recognised the momentum of the ball or particle ; whilst in the second case, he has...

...usually announced thus : When a perfectly elastic body strikes a hard surface and rebounds from it, the angle of incidence will be equal to the angle of reflection, and these angles will be in the same plane. By the angle of incidence is understood the angle which...
