What role does it play in refraction of light and the formation of images?arrow_forwardchoose the correct answer in the parenthesis 1. Light is an electromagnetic radiation that travels in a straight line at a speed of (3.0 x 108 m/sec, 3.0 x 107 m/sec). 2. It is the type of reflection wherein light hits a smooth surface then light is reflected back in a regular pattern. This reflection is called (specular, diffuse) reflection.3. The law of reflection states that the angle of incidence is (greater than, equal to) the angle of reflection.4. (Reflection, Refraction) is the bending of light as it passes from one medium to another of different optical density.arrow_forward
