The normal is the line that runs perpendicular to the mirror between the two rays. The light ray that hits the mirror from the object is called the incident ray (ray of incidence) and the ray that is reflected off the mirror into our eyes is called the reflected ray (ray of reflection). Perform simple constructions, measurements and calculations based on reflections in plane mirrors.In the diagram, PP’ is the object and QQ’ is the image we see.
The image will be behind the plane of the mirror and the object will be in front the distance between the image and mirror will be equal to the distance between the object and mirror.It looks like the object is at Q’Q, when it’s actually at P’P. The most common example of virtual images are reflections in plane mirrors – look at the diagram below. So, due to the direction the light rays come from, our brain makes us think that the object is in one place when in reality, it is in another. A virtual image is produced when rays of light come into our eyes and appear to come from an object, when in reality, that object is not present at the apparent position of the source. virtual – a real image is formed on a screen (or some other detector, like your eyes) when all of the rays from a single point on an object strike a single point on a screen.Light rays will strike the mirror and reflect off it into our eyes. How do we see objects in the mirror? It is due to reflection (of light). Describe the formation and characteristics of an optical image seen in a plane mirror.We apologise for the inconvenience, but hope that the new images will provide you with an even better learning experience. Disclaimer: Due to unforeseen difficulties, we have had to take down the images on this notes page.
