Compare concave mirror to convex mirror?
They both will give distorted images, but where a convex mirror (which bulges out like a bubble) has a right-side up image, a concave mirror (which bows in like a bowl) has an upside-down image.
How will you arrange two plain mirrors such that you can see your back while trying on clothes?
If you imagine a square around your body, put one mirror in front of you and to your right at about 45 degrees so it cuts off one corner of the square. Put the other to your back and right in the square at about 45 degrees. Now just turn your head to the mirror in front of you.
Why does a broken mirror show multiple images and not a single one?
It is a matter of angles. If you took pieces of a broken mirror and pasted them onto a flat surface, so that all the pieces were once again on the same plane as they were originally, there would be only one image in the incomplete mirror-- even if there are large gaps where there are no mirror pieces. You would see one "image" of yourself and it would look you are seeing yourself through a mosaic. Your eyes might be in one piece, mouth and chin might be in another, etc. But all of the sections of the image would be in the right positions relative to each other. Change the angles of the pieces, and it is something like having several different mirrors. Each "plane" represented by a single piece will be like a mirror in itself, and you will appear in that piece as you would in a full-size mirror on the same plane.
What do you mean by convex mirror and concave mirror?
concave and convex refer to the curve of the mirror. if it is concave, it curves in at the middle, like a 'cave'. if it is convex, it curves out at the middle, like an eye. think of a spoon - one side is convex, the other is concave. this curve will affect the image the mirror shows.
How can you prove the image formed in plane mirror is as far behindthe mirror as the object in front of it?
To do this get a plane mirror and two pins. 1.place the first pin in front of the mirror and let it stand firmly. 2.the second pin would act like a search pin-move it until it coincide with the image of the first pin. 3.avoid error due to parallax in 2 4.read the distance of the first pin from the mirror and now the second from behind the mirror,you will find out they are approximately the same since you can't do it perfectly at home. 5.Any small object can also be used
Is a mirror like parralell dimension?
A mirror is a reflection; an image.
What is a mirror-like image?
Symmetry
How will you arrange two plane mirror such that you will be able to see youre back when trying on clothes?
If you place them face to face and then tilt them both 45 degrees away from center you should get a type of reverse periscope. Like this: / <------------ l l \ ------------> The image coming from behind strikes the top mirror and is deflected 90 degrees down. The image then strikes the second mirror and deflects it 90 degrees back towards you, where you can see it.
How is symmetry like a mirror image?
symmetryis about copying one objectsomewhereelse. a mirror just allows you to see what you have to draw inadvanceand you cant see afterwords yoursymmetricalshape is like your mirror image
What are the characteristics of a mirror?
A mirror is clear,glass like and can reflect off an image
Compare concave mirror to convex mirror?

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!!
How your image is seen on a mirror?
With lateral inversion. Left hand would become right and right would look like left hand.
What are mirror twins?
Mirror image twins are identical and have mirror image differences but are genetically identical which means they have the same DNA. A set of mirror-image twins will have similarities like a mole. One twin would have it on his left arm while the other would have it on his right. Another common feature is one twin being left handed, while the other is right handed. For male twins, the swirl of hair crown is often in the opposite direction.
How can 6 6 equil 11?
Roman numerals VI and its mirror image underneath it so it would look like XI
How is an image seen in a plane mirror with the image in a convex mirror different?
Concave: a curved like a segment of the interior of a circle or hollow sphere; hollow and curved Convex:having a surface that is curved or rounded outwards plane-a flat mirror
How come when you look in the mirrior you get different reflection sometimes in skinny average or fat?
Your reflection is based on the shape the mirror is.Example:If the mirror was bent outwards the reflected image would appear wider.If the mirror was bent inwards the reflected image would appear thinner.Usually you can commonly find mirrors like these in fun houses, and can be found in various shapes such as cones etc.
