Why did the left hand appear on the right in the perpendicular mirrors?
Clench your left hand and look in the mirror. Your head is directly in line with the head in the mirror. Your feet are directly opposite your feet in the mirror. Your clenched fist is directly opposite the fist in the mirror, your open hand is directly opposite the open hand in the mirror. If you put your fist to the mirror, the image puts its fist out to meet it. You would be surprised if it moved the other hand instead. Comments: I think the question meant "in the plane mirrors". Plane mirrors are flat mirrors. Also, the answer is not complete: 1) the mirror does reverse the object, but only in the direction perpendicular to the mirror surface. That information is in the answer, but it's not made very clear. 2) The image does seem to be left right reversed, despite this. This is because of the "psychology of visual perception", and not "physics". We find it hard to "see" our image as reversed front to back. So that means we perceive the image as reversed left to right, with front and back unchanged.
Why do you often see the object are closer than they appear written on convex mirrors?
The mirror is slightly convexed to help eliminate the "blind" spot on the passenger's side. There is a plane mirror on the driver's side and a convex mirror on the passenger's side. The reason only the passenger mirror is convex is because you are farther away from it. The angular view provided by farther mirror of the same physical size produces a similarly smaller reflected field of view. The convex mirror provides a larger field of view- one that should be comparable to the closer drivers mirror.
What happens when you put an object in front of a light?
1) if the object is opeaque the will not pass through it 2) if the object is hard the light will bend and forming a shadow of that object 3) if the object is cold its temperature will become exact to the enviropment
A convex mirror has a focal length of -11 cm a light bulb with a diameter of 5.5 cm is placed 60.0 cm from the mirror what is its Diameter?
You have to use your math is this question. First you have to put in all your number in the math equation once you get your value divide that by the diameter of the light bulb to the diameter of the actual object.

When train is travell with speed of light nd we put a mirror in front of me then what will image formed?
An object such as a train simply CANNOT travel at the speed of light. You can investigate what happens when it moves close to the speed of light.

How do you make scary Mary appear and what happens when she does?
What you do is light up a candle and put it in front of the mirror and look in the mirror and you say Scary Mary Looking Through, Scary Mary She See's You, Scary Mary Looking Through, Scary Mary She's Got You. Then after you say those words a burnt brush is supposed to appear out of nowhere which is supposed to have an M on it for Mary.I don't believe in it but if you DO happen upon a burnt brush with the letter M on it, don't use it, especially not in front of the mirror because supposedly, Mary will reach through the mirror and pull you into her world. She's supposed to steal your face.
What can a mirror do with light?
if you put a mirror in front of the sun, this thing will happen, like a flash of light.its pretty cool, but it doesnt work all the time
Does a plane mirror always form the image of an object exactly on the plane reflecting surface?
A plane mirror doesn't 'really' form an image at all. The image is 'virtual', not 'real'. You see what appears to be an image. It's located at the same distance behind the reflecting surface as the actual object is in front of it. If a real image exists, you can always put a piece of frosted glass, photo-film, or tissue paper where the image is, and capture it. You can't do that with a plane mirror.
What would be the image of a cut out letter P when it is being placed in front of a mirror?
The image would be P It would only be reversed if you turn the P to face the mirror, but if you put it in front of you facing you the image would be the same
