Yes. This can be proven with the Law of Reflection. What this states is: the angle of incidence equals the angle of reflexion. For information about the law of reflection you can visit this site and review the diagrams and notes: http://www.glenbrook.k12.il.us/gbssci/phys/class/refln/u13l1c.html

Which factor most influences the image produced by reflection of an object on a concave mirror?

The focal point. It can affect size, real/virtual, inverted/upright.

What is an example of a convex mirror?

A plane mirror is a mirror with a planar reflective surface. For light rays striking a plane mirror, the angle of reflection equals the angle of incidence. Thus a collimated beam of light does not spread out after reflection from a plane mirror, except for diffraction effects.Insertformulahere==Images== A plane mirror makes images of objects in front of it; these images appear to be behind the plane in which the mirror lies. A straight line drawn from part of an object to the corresponding part of its image makes a right angle with, and is bisected by, the surface of the plane mirror. The image formed by Insertformulahere==Images==a plane mirror is always virtual (meaning that the light rays do not actually come from the image), upright, and of the same shape and size as the object it is reflecting. A virtual image is a copy of an object formed at the location from which the light rays appear to come. However, the image is a laterally-inverted "mirror image" of the object. If a person is reflected in a plane mirror, the image of his right hand appears to be the left hand of the image.

Where is the image formed when you look at something on the mirror?

The image is formed behind the mirror at the same distance as the object's reflection from the mirror's surface. This is due to reflection of light rays from the object off the mirror's surface.


What factor influences the image produced by reflection of an object in a concave mirror?

Distance from the mirror, curvature of the mirror.

What are the key features of a plane mirror diagram?

A plane mirror diagram shows the reflection of an object in a mirror. Key features include the object, its reflection, the mirror surface, and the normal line perpendicular to the mirror. The angles of incidence and reflection are equal, and the image appears to be the same distance behind the mirror as the object is in front.

Distance from the mirror, curvature of the mirror.


What name is given to the reflection of an object in the mirror?

The reflection of an object in the mirror is called a mirror image.


Why the distance of the mirror image equal with distance of the mirror object?

The distance of the mirror image is equal to the distance of the mirror object because light rays reflecting off the mirror follow the law of reflection, which states that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. This results in a virtual image being created behind the mirror at the same distance as the object in front of the mirror.


What is the reflection from a mirror called?

Just that: reflection. There can be a virtual image, an imaginary image, an inverted image etc depenting on the shape of the surface of the mirror.


What is called to the reflection of the the object in a mirror?

Can you predict how far away the image of an object will appear in a mirror?

The image of an object will appear the same distance behind the mirror as the object is in front of it. This is due to the reflection of light rays creating a virtual image that mimics the distance of the object.


What is your reflection in a mirror called?

The reflection of an object in a mirror is called a virtual image. This image appears to be behind the mirror, but it is not a physical object.
