Differentiate between regular and diffused reflection. Does diffused reflection mean the failure of the laws of reflection?
Regular reflection |
Diffused reflection |
(i) It takes place on a smooth surface. (ii) All the reflected rays are parallel to each other. (iii) Reflected rays are in one direction. |
(i) It takes place on a rough surface. (ii) Reflected rays are not parallel. (iii) Reflected rays are scattered in different directions.

No, diffused reflection is not due to failure of laws of reflection. Diffused Reflection occurs due to irregularities in the surface.
