Why do things look backwards in a mirror?
Things appear backwards in a mirror because the mirror reflects light in a way that flips the image horizontally. When you look at a mirror, your left side appears on the right and vice versa, creating the perception of a reversed image.
When you look at a plane mirror what does the images appear to be in th mirror?
The image in a plane mirror appears to be the same size as the object, but flipped left to right. Additionally, the image appears to be behind the mirror at the same distance as the object is in front of the mirror.
Where does your image appear to be when you look into a plane mirror?
It's a virtual reflection of the object which appears as an image as much behind the mirror as the distance of the object in front.
What the image formed in a plane mirror look like?
The image formed in a plane mirror will appear to be the same size as the object, located the same distance behind the mirror as the object is in front of it, and laterally inverted (left and right reversed). The image will look like a virtual reflection of the object.
How will the image appear if an object is held extremely close to a concave mirror?
If an object is held extremely close to a concave mirror, the image will appear magnified, upside down, and virtual. The image will be located beyond the focal point of the mirror.

What distance from the mirror does an image in a plane mirror appear to be?
Same distance behind mirror.

How will the image of the word PEN appear in front of a plane mirror?
The image of the word PEN in front of a plane mirror will appear as a reversed image of the word PEN. So, if you write PEN in front of a plane mirror, the reflection will show NEP.
Why are things backwards in the mirror?
Things appear backwards in the mirror because mirrors reflect light waves. When you look in a mirror, the reflection appears reversed because the mirror is reflecting the image as if it were behind the mirror rather than in front of it.
Is a plane mirror a virtual or real image?
A plane mirror forms a virtual image because the reflected rays do not actually converge to form an image behind the mirror, but appear to diverge from a point behind the mirror.
What is the difference between an optical correct mirror and a rue image mirror?
An optical correct mirror preserves the proportions and angles of the reflected image, making it appear as though looking in a regular mirror. On the other hand, a true image mirror reverses the image, so text appears backwards and objects are flipped horizontally.
Where does a virtual image appear in front or behind a mirror?
A virtual image appears behind the mirror. It is not a real image formed by light rays converging at a point but is instead an apparent image that appears to be behind the mirror.
What will happen to your image in the mirror if you step closer to it?
If you step closer to the mirror, your image will appear larger and more detailed due to the proximity of the reflective surface. It may also appear distorted if you get too close due to the mirror's curvature or imperfections.
