How does a mirror interact with light?
A mirror interacts with light by exhibiting specular reflection. This means that a mirror will form an image, which is why one can see herself in a mirror.
does a plane mirror produces a real image?
"Real" and "virtual" are two opposite, mutually exclusive categories of images. An image is either one or the other, and no image can be both. The image produced by a plane mirror is a virtual one.
What is the sign for object and image distances that are measured on the front side of a mirror?
Regardless of which side of the mirror you designate as the positive side, one of them is positive and the other one is negative, since the object and image are always on opposite sides of the mirror. BTW ... If the mirror is flat, then their absolute values are equal.
What Is concave mirror complete the given ray diagram and also write its one charactertis of the formed image?
Concave mirror is that spherical mirror in which the reflection of light takes place in the bent-in surface(also called concave surface).
What is one object that shows reflection?
mirror.

As you look at an ordinary mirror at large angle you can often see more than one image why?
In addition to the primary image formed by one reflection off the back of the mirror, you may get images formed after two reflections and a total internal refraction: reflection off the back of mirror, refraction on inside of front surface of glass and reflection off back of the mirror. The refraction will only take place at a large angle.

What are the properties of image seen in a concave mirror if the object is farther from the mirror than the focal point?
real, inverted and magnification less than one
Can a sonogram produce a mirror image of a baby to where it looks like twins?
of course not! A mirror image would have to have one image of the baby and the second image precisely behind it- and you know that cannot happen in a real uterus! One single image of a baby cannot mirror a second one to the side of it as in fraternal or identical twins. Look in a mirror and move your arms. Does not the arm move preciely in the reflection the same way you are moving it? it may look like two arms to you but its one!!

What is a triangle with one mirror line?
a reflection
What kind of image do you see when you look into the mirror?
The simple answer is one. The main reflection from the silvered surface on the back side of the mirror glass. A second reflection occurs from the front surface of the glass. However, this will be fainter since the reflectivity to transmittance of glass is low. The philosophical answer is infinite. Any reflective surface on you body (your eyes, for example) reflects the image in the mirror which reflect the image from the reflection... A pragmatist would set a limit at these reflections (the intensity is less than the sensitivity of the eyes, the image is smaller than the wavelength of visible light, etc.).
What are the benefits of a Broadway mirror?
One major benefit of a broadway mirror is that its wide vision eliminates dangerous blind spots by increasing visibility. It also prevents a double image reflection and is basically free from distortion. This mirror is also scatter-proof.
What will be the difference in the size of the image of the same object formed by a small and large plane mirror?
A plane mirror has angle of incidence == angle of reflection and creates a virtual image . The size is +1 - its the SAME SIZE + means upright ( being virtual ) . Only difference is you can see MORE of yourself in a larger mirror against a smaller one.
