What else can I help you with?
What distance from the mirror does an image in a plane mirror appear to be?
Same distance behind mirror.
How will the image appear if an object is held extremely close to a concave mirror?
If an object is held extremely close to a concave mirror, the image will appear magnified, upside down, and virtual. The image will be located beyond the focal point of the mirror.
How will the image of the word PEN appear in front of a plane mirror?
The image of the word PEN in front of a plane mirror will appear as a reversed image of the word PEN. So, if you write PEN in front of a plane mirror, the reflection will show NEP.
Is a plane mirror a virtual or real image?
A plane mirror forms a virtual image because the reflected rays do not actually converge to form an image behind the mirror, but appear to diverge from a point behind the mirror.
Where does a virtual image appear in front or behind a mirror?
A virtual image appears behind the mirror. It is not a real image formed by light rays converging at a point but is instead an apparent image that appears to be behind the mirror.
What will happen to your image in the mirror if you step closer to it?
If you step closer to the mirror, your image will appear larger and more detailed due to the proximity of the reflective surface. It may also appear distorted if you get too close due to the mirror's curvature or imperfections.
How would the eye perceive an image created by a concave mirror and by a convex mirror?
The image formed by a concave mirror can be real or virtual, depending on the object's position relative to the mirror. A real image is formed in front of the mirror and can be projected onto a screen, while a virtual image is formed behind the mirror and cannot be projected. Conversely, a convex mirror always produces a virtual, upright, smaller image of the object. The image appears closer to the mirror than the actual object and does not form a focused point.
Why do images in a concave mirror appear inverted?
If an object's distance from the concave mirror is greater than the mirror's focal length, then the mirror image of it will be inverted. If the distance from the concave mirror is less than the focal length of the mirror, the image will not be inverted. No image will be produced if the distance from the mirror to the object is equal to the mirror's focal length.
Would the reflected image from a concave mirror be brighter or darker than the original image?
It would depend on the distance of the object from the mirror. If the object is close to the mirror, the reflected image may appear brighter due to magnification. However, if the object is far from the mirror, the reflected image may appear darker due to spread out light rays.
Why does your image appear to be behind the mirror?
The image appears to be behind the mirror due to the reflection of light. When light hits the mirror, it bounces off and creates the illusion that the image is located behind the mirror. This is how mirrors create images by reflecting light back to our eyes.
How do the images appear in a convex mirror?
Images in a convex mirror appear smaller, virtual, and upright. The reflected image is located behind the mirror and its size depends on the object's distance from the mirror.
When does a convex mirror form real image?
A convex mirror always forms a virtual image, meaning that the light rays appear to be coming from a point behind the mirror. Thus, a real image is never formed by a convex mirror.
