What is the number of pole of mirror?
The center of the spherical reflecting surface of the mirror is called the pole of the mirror.
What is the mirror holder in a microscope?
it helps the mirror to hold

How much does mirror re-silvering cost?
Mirror re-silvering typically costs between $20 to $50 per square foot, depending on the size and type of mirror. Additional charges may apply for removal and reinstallation. It is recommended to get quotes from multiple providers for accurate pricing.
Why would the driver's outside mirror on Tahoe 2002 suddenly show double images and howm do you fix it?
It is because the silvering for the mirror is separating from the glass. Apparently this is a fairly common problem for heated mirrors. You need to replace the glass or whole housing.
What is silvering in a vacuum flask?
There is a silvering in the vacuum flask in order to reduce the loss of heat through the means of radiation.
Is acetone used in silvering of mirrors?
No
Where does angle of incidence happen?
At the point of refraction. There are going to be more than one in a standard mirror. The surface of the mirror glass will reflect as well as the back of the glass. The "silvering" then reflects the majority of the light. Most high quality optics have the surface coated with a reflective substance.
Do refracting telescopes need regular attention?
No not really if they kept in a cool dry place. Reflectors need more attention, like the re-silvering of the mirror every few years (they don't actually use silver nowadays).

How much does mirror re silvering cost?
According to www.mirrorresilvering.com, they charge $20 a sq ft, or Length (inches) x Width (inches) x .1389 = Cost. Another website indicates they charge $15 per sq ft.
Is the thermos flask is in use if it's silvering is removed?
If only the silvering is gone, it can still be used, but it won't be as good. However, quite often the silvering is inside the vacuum compartment; if the silvering has vanished because the glass cracked, it is very probably unsafe to use. A thermal flask works by preventing heat conduction (the vacuum layer will not conduct heat) and by preventing heat radiation (the silver layer reflects the heat back at the contents). Without the silver layer, the heat will not be reflected. The flask will still work, but will lose or gain heat faster that it would if the silvering was intact. Note: The "silvering" on older flasks may be mercury. If the envelope is cracked and the mercury evaporates, it could prove toxic. Newer flasks use aluminum.
What is the process of using silver to make superior mirrors called?
