Angles of Reflection Bulls-eye Activity

Created by

SmartySummerCamp

In this activity, students are challenged with reflecting a laser light off of a mirror and hitting a target. In order to do this, students must construct a model of how the laser will travel, calculating the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection, using the plane of the mirror's surface and the normal line that is perpendicular to the plane of the mirror. This activity that can be adapted to be used in any physical science class on waves, rays, and reflection or in a math class on angle
