  1. An optically plane surface reflects a beam of light
    1. as a parallel beam in one direction

    2. as diffused beams in all directions
    3. as parallel beams in all directions
    4. as a diffused beam in one direction
Correct Option: A

An optically plane surface reflects a beam of light as a parallel beam in one direction. The set of incident rays are reflected as a set of rays. In other words, a beam of light is reflected as a beam of light if the mirror is plane and its reflecting surface is smooth. This type of reflection of a set of rays is called Specular Reflection.
