Question

Does sound follow the same laws of reflection as light does? Explain.

Answer

Yes, sound follows the same laws of reflection as light.

Explanation:

  1. Angle of Incidence = Angle of Reflection: The angle at which sound strikes a surface is equal to the angle at which it gets reflected.

  2. Same Plane: The incident sound wave, the reflected sound wave, and the normal at the point of incidence all lie in the same plane.
