Why there is water droplets forming on mirror when blown?
The hot heat from the hot water turns evaporates. Once it reaches or touches a cool surface (mirror), the heat would condense and turn into water droplets. Therefore, water droplets are found in the mirror when you bath.
What does a mirror reflect facing a mirror?
A "mirror" is defined as something that reflects visible light. Therefore, two mirrors facing each other will only reflect any light that comes into contact with them, along with any visible distortions inherent to the reflecting process, such as coloration from the metal in the mirror and impurities in the glass. Given two theoretically "perfect" mirrors facing each other, the only thing reflected would be light. In the absence of friction or other interference, the light would travel infinitely and eternally. If one were able to look directly at this, one would literally just see light, as far as the eye could see. Contrary to popular belief, mirrors do not reflect images. They reflect the light coming from objects and redirect that light to the human eye, giving the impression of an "image." In reality, the eye is seeing the actual object. It's just that the light coming from the object has been redirected.
A flat sheet of glass with a silver-colored coating on one side is a?
mirror
Is the glass magnifying glass the same as the glass of eyeglasses?
Yes, its just that a magnifying glass has a different prescription than eyeglasses.
What is a flat sheet of glass that has a smooth silver colored coating on one side?
It is normally called a mirror.
What is a line drawn at right angles to a glass mirror called?
a straight line
What is mirror as it relates to physics?
A mirror is a 'reflector'. If made of of silvered glass as a common mirror, the glass surface also represents a refractive plane.
Why do the sides of a fish tank look like a mirror when observed from a specific angle?
The sides of a fish tank look like a mirror when observed from specific angles because of glass refraction. When the light is reflected off of the glass at certain angles, it looks mirror like.
Why is the true surface of a mirror invisible?
That's because it is made of glass, with a silver coating on the far surface.
What is a mirror?
A "Mirror" is a polished metal object which produces optical images, and Via reflection.A reflective surface, mainly glued to glass.
What is a smooth shiny surface that is able to reflect light?
shinny surfaces, example mirror.
What happens to the light rays as they hit the mirror at an angle?
they are reflected at an equal opposing angle on a first-surface mirror. on a second surface (bathroom mirror) they are also reflected, but some are absorbed/disbursed by impurities and inconsistencies in the glass.
Is mirror a matter?
A mirror is usually made from a glass sheet backed by a silvered surface - though highly polished metal can also be used. Therefore, a mirror is matter.
Why does a mirror need glass?
it doesn't. Any smooth, shinny surface will do. BUT the technology of glass mirrors is good, cheap, fast, and durable.
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.
What makes a plane mirror a glass mirror?
The glass.
What is a synonym for looking glass?
A synonym for "looking glass" is mirror.
