Place a sheet of paper on the table in front of

the mirror then use the ruler to trace the pathway

of the beam to and from the mirror.

Label the incidence beam and the reflective beam.
Using a protractor, measure these angles in

degrees. Record your results in the table below.

Trial	Angle of incidence θi	Angle of Reflection , θr
1
2

4

Draw the normal and reflected rays knowing the
Law of Reflection (qi=qr) . Write the values of the angle of incidence and angle of reflection in the table above.

How do the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection compare for each trial?

You place a mirror 10 cm in front of your face, which creates an upright image that is twice the height of the object. You then move the mirror along the principle axis until it creates an inverted image twice the height of the object. What kind of mirror must this be and why? Where is the object with respect to the mirror’s focal length for each of the mirror positions? (ie. f < s < R) Draw ray diagrams...

A lamp is twice as far in front of a plane mirror as a person is. Light from the lamp reaches the person via two paths. It strikes the mirror at a 36.1° angle of incidence and reflects from it before reaching the person. The total time for the light to travel this path includes the time to travel to the mirror and the time to travel from the mirror to the person. The light also travels directly to the...

A small ball is held at a point—A, B, or C—in front of a plane mirror, as shown in (Figure 2) . Rank points A, B, and C according to the distance between the actual ball and the image of the ball, from greatest to smallest. If any two ball locations produce the same distance between the ball and its image, overlap the location points.
