Illumination

1. Which three components does the Phong illumination model contain?

a. A light source is moved to a new location.

2. What is the value of the specular exponent for a perfect mirror? Why?

3. A plane is defined by equation x + z − 2 = 0 , with the diffuse reflection

4. A point light source with intensity 1 is located at coordinates (8, 10, 10). It
illuminates an origin-centered sphere with radius 2, diffuse coefficient 0.7,
specular coefficient 0.2, and specular exponent 2. The ambient reflection
coefficient is 0.1. The intensity of the ambient light source is 1. An observer
located at the position with coordinates (10, 0, 0) is looking at a point on the
sphere, along the direction [-1 0 0]. Find the point and calculate the illumination
on the surface of the sphere at the point seen by the observer.
