    The document is a physics assignment on reflection of light. It contains questions about locating a point light source in a diagram, calculating the distance light travels in a year and the time it takes for light to travel to and reflect back from the nearest star, determining angles of incidence and reflection from a mirror, sketching images formed by a mirror, and describing types of reflection from different water surfaces. The assignment contains multiple choice and short answer questions testing understanding of basic reflection concepts.

    3 Physics Assignment - Reflection of Light (1)


    S.3 ____ Name : _____________________________ ( )
    Grade : ________
    Level 1

    1. In the figure, the lines represent light rays emitted by a point


    light source S.

    (a) Locate the position of S in the figure.

    (b) Suggest a light source which can be approximated as a


    point light source. ______________________________
    A
    (c) Draw the light ray that comes from S and passes through
    point A.

    2.
    (a) Light year is the distance travelled by light in one year. Express one light-year in metres to 2
    decimal places in power-of-ten notation.
    (Given that speed of light in vacuum c = 3  108 m s-1 and 1 year = 365 days)

    ________________________________________________________________________________

    (b) The nearest star is at a distance 4.3 light years from the Earth. How much time it takes the light
    to travel from the Earth to this star and reflect back to the Earth? Express your answer in years.

    ________________________________________________________________________________

    3. The angle between an incident ray and the plane mirror is 40o as shown in the figure.

    (a) What is the angle of incidence? _____________________

    (b) Mark the angle of reflection (r) and state its value. On the
    diagram sketch the reflected ray. Answer : r = ___________

    (c) What is the total angle turned by the ray of light? (This angle 40
    is called the angle of deviation.) _____________________

    4. Sketch the images of the letter ‘NLRZ’


    as seen in the plane mirror. NLRZ

    5. A pond of clam water is a good ________________________ surface. It enables images of trees on


    the pond’s side to be seen as the smooth water surface can produce ________________________
    reflection. However, when the wind blows, the ruffled water surface produces __________________
    reflection and so no clear images can be seen.

    6. The figure shows two rays from a point object


    striking a plane mirror M.

    (a) Locate the point object O and hence its


    image I in the mirror.

    (b) Complete the diagram by drawing the


    reflected rays.
