Difference between Angle of incidence (optics) and Normal (geometry)

Angle of incidence (optics) vs. Normal (geometry)

In geometric optics, the angle of incidence is the angle between a ray incident on a surface and the line perpendicular to the surface at the point of incidence, called the normal. In geometry, a normal is an object such as a line or vector that is perpendicular to a given object.

Similarities between Angle of incidence (optics) and Normal (geometry)

Angle of incidence (optics) and Normal (geometry) have 3 things in common (in Unionpedia): Computer graphics, Ray (optics), Reflection (physics).

Computer graphics

Ray (optics)

In optics a ray is an idealized model of light, obtained by choosing a line that is perpendicular to the wavefronts of the actual light, and that points in the direction of energy flow.

Reflection (physics)

Reflection is the change in direction of a wavefront at an interface between two different media so that the wavefront returns into the medium from which it originated.
