Which phenomenon occurs when light falls on a smooth mirror? A. specular reflection B. Diffusion C. refraction D. diffused reflection

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A mirror reflects the incoming ray of light in a particular direction as given by the laws of reflection which results in formation of images. In diffused reflection (like that from a rough wall), the light rays are scattered into a broad range which does not result in the formation of images. So "specular reflection" is the right answer.
