Two flat mirrors make an angle of 90.0° with each other, as diagrammed below. An incoming ray makes an angle of ? = 45° with the normal of mirror A. Use the law of reflection to determine the angle of reflection from mirror B. ° from the normal line of mirror B.
What is unusual about the incoming light for this arrangement of mirrors?
The ray reflected from the second mirror is never parallel to the incoming ray.The ray reflected from the second mirror is always parallel to the incoming ray. There is no reflected ray.
Construct ray diagrams to determine the location, orientation, size, and type of images formed by a curved mirror. Using the protractor and the ruler, copy each of the diagrams (A – F) below on a separate sheet of paper. As much as possible, use the four principal rays to locate the image formed in a curved mirror.
A ball is dropped from rest 3.20 m directly above the vertex of a concave mirror having a radius of 1.50 m and lying in a horizontal plane.
a) Describe the motion of the ball's image in the mirror by filling in the table below.
b) At what two times do the ball and its image coincide? (List the lesser time first.)
