Question
A light beam is being reflected by using two mirrors, as in a periscope used in submarines. If one of the mirrors rotates by an angle $\theta$, the reflected light will deviate from its original path by the angle

Answer

( a)When a mirror is rotated by an angle $\theta$, the reflected ray deviate from its original path by angle $2\theta $.
