What error is introduced by the thickness of the mirror?

The error is introduced by the thickness of the mirror is called the reflective error. It all depends with which side the mirror is coated. The type of mirror in question also plays a role.


What is the color of mirror?

A mirror has no color. A perfect mirror will reflect all light equally and spectrally. A spectral reflection is one where all light hitting the mirror from a single direction is reflected in a single direction as it leaves the surface.As mirrors are usually constructed behind a thickness of glass, the glass itself can sometimes absorb certain colors and so the mirror does not reflect all colors fully. Then it may appear that the mirror has a color.There is no specific color of mirror. A mirror is a silver plated surface covereg with plane glass, reflecting whatever color coming in the front of it.


How can you tell a two way mirror?

On a two way mirror, if you put your fingernail up against the glass and the reflection of your nail touches your nail then it may be a 'two way mirror.' On a regular mirror, the silver that reflects is painted to the back of the sheet of glass. Do the fingernail test at home on a regular mirror. Because the silver is on the back of the glass, there should be a gap between your nail and the reflection the thickness of the glass, maybe a 1/4 inch. A two way will not.


How big was the Flaw in the Hubble's original primary mirror which caused the telescope's images to be fuzzy for three years?

How do you calculate inch diameter for reinforcement pad in pipe?

Reinforcing pads mirror the pipe that they are being welded to in size, thickness, and material. To measure the diameter of the pad, measure the pipe at a cross section.

How can you do an Experiment on angle of reflection and angle of incidence?

Set up a light source that has narrow beam (a laser pointer is perfect for this).Point it at a mirror,measure the angle of incidence and of reflection.rotate the mirror,measure the angles,continue through many angles,tabulate and graph the results.

Can you see your reflection on an uneven surface?

Depends on what you are reflecting ON... If it's not a clear or mirror like surface... then no, if it is, you can still see your reflection on an uneven surface... Why don't you actually EXPERIMENT and try to see it for yourself?


What might be the symbol meaning of the mirror Dr heideggers experiment?

The mirror, in literal terms, is an object in which we can see our own reflection. But Dr. Heidegger also sees in his own mirror, the images of his deceased patients. The mirror symbolizes his past failures and those patients he could not save. This symbol is a key to the character of Heidegger, who is aware of human limitations that we could not be young again even if he could be.~Pink.Zebra~Source: Adventures in American Literature -Harcourt Brace Jovanovich
