The distance between the two images of a point source formed in them is 20 cm. Determine the distance from the light source to the point where the mirrors touch if it lies on the bisector of the angle formed by the mirrors. How should two plane mirrors be arranged for point source of light and its two images to lie at the vertices of an equilateral triangle ? Sunrays are reflected from a horizontal mitror and fall on a vertical screen. An oblong object is placed on the mirror . Describe the shadow on the screen. Assume that the screen is at a sufficiently large distance from the object. N Mirror Screen In each of the following cases, an object and a plane mirror are as shown in each figure.
