Concept explainers

Applications Of Reflection Of Light

When a light ray (termed as the incident ray) hits a surface and bounces back (forms a reflected ray), the process of reflection of light has taken place.

Sign Convention for Mirrors

A mirror is made of glass that is coated with a metal amalgam on one side due to which the light ray incident on the surface undergoes reflection and not refraction.

I Review
You stand 1.45 m in front of a wall and gaze downward at a small vertical mirror mounted
on it. In this mirror you can see the reflection of your shoes.
Part A
If your eyes are 1.90 m above your feet, through what angle should the mirror be tilted for you to see your eyes reflected in the mirror? (The location of the mirror remains the same, only its angle to the vertical is
changed.)
