What angle should you rotate a mirror so that a reflected ray rotates through 25?
To rotate a mirror so that a reflected ray rotates through 25 degrees, the mirror should be rotated half that angle, which is 12.5 degrees.
Does light travel through a one way mirror?
Yes, light travels through a "one way mirror" but only a small part of the light, most of the light is reflected. In fact light will travel both ways through a "one way mirror"!What makes a "one way mirror" appear to act one way is if the room on one side is brightly lit and the room on the other side is dimly lit, in the brightly lit room the reflected light from the brightly lit room swamps out the small amount of transmitted light from the dimly lit room and the mirror appears to be an ordinary mirror, but in the dimly lit room the transmitted light from the brightly lit room swamps out the small amount of reflected light from the dimly lit room and the mirror appears to be a window.
What are 3 examples of light being reflected?
Mirror reflecting light off its surface. Water surface reflecting sunlight. Shiny metal surface reflecting light.
When a nearby item is reflected in this type of mirror it appears magnified?
It becomes magnified with a concave mirror
When a wave is reflected from a mirror there is a change in its what?
Direction. When a wave is reflected from a mirror, its direction changes according to the law of reflection, which states that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection.
What angle should you rotate a mirror so that a reflected ray rotates through 25?
To rotate a mirror so that a reflected ray rotates through 25 degrees, the mirror should be rotated half that angle, which is 12.5 degrees.
When a plane mirror is rotated by an angle theta what will be the rotation of the reflected light?
2*theta
A reflected ray in a mirror makes an angle of 20 and deg with the incident ray. when the mirror is rotated 15 and deg what angle will the reflected ray now make with the incident ray?
The angle between the incident ray and the reflected ray is equal to the angle between the incident ray and the normal. When the mirror is rotated, the normal also rotates by the same angle. Therefore, the angle between the incident ray and the reflected ray will still be 20 degrees.
What is the ray of light traveling parallel to the principal axis of a concave mirror that will be reflected out through the mirror?
A ray of light traveling parallel to the principal axis of a concave mirror will be reflected through the focal point of the mirror after reflection.
When rays parallel to the principal axis of a concave mirror are reflected the pass though?
When rays parallel to the principal axis of a concave mirror are reflected, they converge at the focal point.
A ray of light traveling parallel to the principal axis of a concave mirror will be reflected out through the mirror's?
focus
What kind of mirror do you have if reflected rays of light pass through the principle focus when light hits a mirror parallel to the principle axis?
The mirror is a concave mirror. This behavior is a property of concave mirrors, where parallel rays of light are reflected and converge at the principal focus after reflection.
When light hits a concave mirror parallel to the principal axis what do the reflected light rays pass through?
When light hits a concave mirror parallel to the principal axis, the reflected light rays converge at the focal point of the mirror.
Which light rays striking a concave mirror are reflected so that they pass through they focal point?
Light rays parallel to the principal axis striking a concave mirror are reflected so that they pass through the focal point.
Why do you see your reflection when you look in a mirror and not when you look at a book?
The image is reflected from a reflective object, in this case [your mirror], as a Book is not a mirror, it is not reflected.
Can your shadow be reflected in the mirror?
No, your shadow cannot be reflected in a mirror. A mirror can only reflect light that is directly shone on it, whereas a shadow is an absence of light being cast by an object blocking light sources.
What is real focus?
When light rays coming from distant object pass through a convex lens or get reflected from the bright surface of a concave mirror,they converge at a certain point.This point is termed as real focus.
