Reflection

Wolfram|Alpha provides a wide range of formulas involving the reflection of light, including formulas for computing total internal reflection, Fresnel's law or the plate reflectance of a Fabry–Pérot interferometer. Compute the behavior of light interacting with a concave or convex mirror.
