For what angle between the two plane mirrors a light ray after reflection?
angle between mirrors = 2c = 90 deg.
What kind of reflection will happen if two plane mirrors are kept parallel?
When two plane mirrors are kept parallel to each other infinite number of images are produced. Multiple reflection takes place that gives rise to many images. What happens is at each reflection, the incident ray of light falling on either of mirrors gets absorbed.
How many images will be formed when an object is placed between two mirrors placed at an angle of 60 degree?
Plane mirrors placed at an angle of 60o produce five images of a single object.
How many images will be formed if an object is kept between two plane mirrors parallel to each other?
infinite
When an object is placed in between two parallel mirrors, the number of image formed is infinite.
What is the angle between two plane mirrors?
Formula for number of images formed by two plane mirrors incident at an angle θ is n = 360∘θ.
What is the angle between the two mirrors?
The number of images formed when two mirrors are placed at an angle theta to each other is given by: n = ( 360 / theta ) – 1. Here, n = 5, so ( 360 / theta ) = n+1 = 6, hence theta = 360/6 = 60 deg. So the mirrors are placed at an angle of 60 deg with each other.
At what angle will the two plane mirrors form a single image?
Similarly, if the angle between the mirrors is increased the number of images decreases and when this angle is 180 degree, only one image is visible. When the angle between the two mirrors is 180 degree they together act like a single mirror so that only one image is visible.
When two plane mirrors are kept at 90 degree we get?
When you place two plane mirrors at a 90-degree angle, the image of the first mirror is reflected in the second mirror so that the reversed mirror image is reversed again, and you see a true image. (See Glossary, page 73.)
How many images can be formed using two plane mirrors?
With two plane mirrors oriented at a nearly 50 degree angle to one another, six different images are formed of an object.
How many images are formed by plane mirror?
10 Images Formed by Plane Mirrors.
How many images will be formed if an object is kept between two mirrors kept at an angle of 120 degree?
Explanation of types of reflection with examples….
| Angle between the two mirrors ( ) | Number of images formed (n) |
|---|---|
| 45 ° | 7 |
| 60 ° | 5 |
| 120 ° | 2 |
| 180 ° | 1 |
