When a DVD is played, a laser light hits the surface of the disk and then returns to the detector. An illustration of DVD with an arrow pointing toward a spot on the disk labeled detector. Which wave phenomenon allows the DVD player to work? absorption interference reflection refraction

Reflection

Explanation:

The wave phenomenon that allows the DVD player to work is REFLECTION.

Reflection is defined as the repropagation of incident light striking a plane surface.

The light ray striking the surface is incident ray while the repropagated light ray is the reflected ray. The DVD was able to play because the laser light that hits the surface of the disk was able to reflect back and returns to the detector. The detector senses the light and cause the DVD to play. If the laser light didn't reflect, assuming it was absorbed by the surface of the disk, the detector wouldn't have detected the light and the DVD wouldn't have played.
