How are disco balls used as a mirrors?
The deceiving shape would suggest that convex mirrors are used but actually concave mirrors are used, this allows the light to 'bounce' off of it. The incident rays are made to converge this virtual image... very sneaky! :D Hope this helps!
What is the mopod code to get the disco ball in moshi monsters?
MoPod codes are unique, meaning they can only be used once. Therefore any codes you find online may already have been used.
When was disco dancing invented?
The disco ball was in use as early as 1897: "The 1897, article of the "Electrical Worker" discusses the Third Annual Ball held on on January 6, 1897, at Roughaus Hall, Charlestown, and of the spectacular lighting display, which could be seen for miles around Boston. The letters N.B.E.W. were done with incandescent lamps of various colors on wire mesh over the ballroom, highlighted by a carbon arc lamp flashing on a mirrored ball. The affair was hosted by Brothers Flynn, Melville, Colvin, Smith, Ellsworth and Dacey. About 800 people enjoyed the spiked punch and melodies of Dunbars famous orchestra." The mirrored ball - used without lights and music - is probably much older, with no known inventor. They used to use mirror balls to repel witches in Europe. But the Disco Ball ? Prior to the 70's it was simply known as a Mirror or Mirrored Ball. Elements of disco ( discothèque) music first appeared on records as early as 1969 with Jerry Butler's "Only the Strong Survive" [1] and had its roots in Philly and New York Soul which themselves were a further evolution of the Motown sound. The Philly Sound which would later morph into Disco was typified by its lush orchestration and emphasis on percussion.
Did sumerian's have mirrors?
Yes, Sumerians did have mirrors, but I'm not sure if they were like the ones we use today. The metalworkers made cups, mirrors, jewelry, &c., and were pretty good at it. The mirrors were probably made of brass or something like it, but I'm not sure if the metal was the mirror or if they used glass. I'm sure they used silver and had the reflective stuff like we do today, so it's likely they had mirrors that were just less reflective.

Uses of a mirror?
We use mirrors in everyday life like car rear view mirrors and side mirrors. Periscopes- auto mechanics use mirrors held on rods so they can examine hard-to-reach places. Torches have curved mirrors for directing the beam of light. Searchlights, floodlights, and spotlights (used in theatres) have similar mirrors. In hairdressers so that the customer may see the result, front and back. To collect sunlight for solar power generation. You can also use them for reflecting light, like a disco ball. Light houses. We can also use mirrors for telescopes, Morse code and the most simple to see ourselves.
What is the similarity between a microscope and magnifying glass?
Periscope- There are two mirrors and mirrors are at an angle of 45 degrees each. Kaleidoscope- There are usually three mirrors each at 60 degrees forming an equilateral triangle. The periscope is a device for observation. ... The periscope has two mirrors in its instrumentation while the kaleidoscope has three.
What does light do in a kaleidoscope?
In a kaleidoscope, light is used to make make the colors and shapes inside visible.
What are the uses of plane mirrors?
Mirrors are most commonly used for personal grooming, decoration, and architecture. Mirrors are also used in scientific apparatus such as telescopes and lasers, cameras, and industrial machinery. Most mirrors are designed for visible light, however, mirrors designed for other wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation are also used, especially in optical instruments.

Mirrors are also used in kaleidoscopes. This is a device that is built with the use of either metal or wood as its outer part and plane mirror as its inner part.. the mirrors in a kaleidoscope are two and are placed at 90 degree angle facing each other,thereby makes it possible for the user to view the environment.

How. Does. A kaleidoscope work?
The kaleidoscope is a tube of mirrors containing loose colored beads or pebbles, or other small colored objects. The viewer looks in one end and light enters the other end, reflecting off the mirrors. Typically there are two rectangular lengthways mirrors. Setting of the mirrors at 45° creates eight duplicate images of the objects, six at 60°, and four at 90°. As the tube is rotated, the tumbling of the colored objects presents the viewer with varying colors and patterns. Any arbitrary pattern of objects shows up as a beautiful symmetric pattern because of the reflections in the mirrors. A two-mirror model yields a pattern or patterns isolated against a solid black background, while a three-mirror (closed triangle) model yields a pattern that fills the entire field. Also, 4 mirror patterns may be used, as well as colored oils in cells, wands, even silk scarves. It was invented in the 19th century by Sir David Brewster. He named it from two Greek words meaning 'beautiful' and 'form', and added the word scope to show that it was something that you look through. It is basically a tube lined with mirrors set at angles to each other. If someone looked in one end then the light would come up from the other end and reflect of the mirrors. The closer the mirrors are together the more images or patterns. For example: Setting the mirrors at 45˚ then you would see eight patterns or images. If you set the mirrors at 60˚ then you would see six images or patterns and if you set the mirrors at 90˚ then you would only see four images or patterns. Usually there are 2 rectangular mirrors set lengthways but there can be more mirrors depending on the type of kaleidoscope.
