Problem

The incident ray, reflected ray, and outward-drawn normal are denoted by the unit vectors a⃗\vec{a}, b⃗\vec{b}, and c⃗\vec{c}, respectively. Choose the correct relation between these vectors. (1) b⃗=2a⃗+c⃗\vec{b}=2\vec{a}+\vec{c} (2) b⃗=a⃗−c⃗\vec{b}=\vec{a}-\vec{c} (3) b⃗=a⃗+2c⃗\vec{b}=\vec{a}+2\vec{c} (4) b⃗=a⃗−2(a⃗⋅c⃗)c⃗\vec{b}=\vec{a}-2(\vec{a}\cdot\vec{c})\vec{c}
