the wall of the room is covered with a perfect plane mirror and two movie films are made one recording the movement of a man and the other of his mirror image  while viewing the film later can an outsider tell which is which ?

- The plane mirror forms an image whose size and shape are exactly similar to that of the actual image.
- For instance your image on the plane mirror would be reflecting your image matching your actual height,width and other visible physical properties.
- However, due to lateral inversion of the image for example the pocket or the logo of your shirt which is actually on your left would appear on right in the image.
- Therefore, the assymetrical features of the object makes it possible for an observer to distinguish the image and the actual object.

A convex mirror of radius of curvature 70 cm and a plane mirror are placed facing each other. The distance between them is 28 cm.  A point object is put midway between them on the principle axis of the mirror. Two images of the object are seen in the plane mirror. Find their distances from the plane mirror.

1. The interior of a hollow metal sphere is polished to serve as a mirror. At a point 12cm from the centre of the sphere of radius 24 cm, a point source of light is placed. Locate its image formed by two successive reflections, the first reflection taking place at the  (a) far wall (b) near wall.  2. And image produced by a concave mirror is one fourth the size of the object.  If the object is moved 10 cm towards the mirror, its image will be only half the size of the object. Calculate the focal length of the mirror.

A point luminous source P is placed on the principle axis of a concave mirror of radius of radius of curvature 1m at a distance of 75 cm from its pole. At what distance from the concave mirror should a plane mirror be set so that the rays from P, after reflection from the concave mirror and then from the plane mirror again converge at the point P? Does the point of convergence of the rays change if they are first reflected at the plane mirror and then at the concave mirror?
