Mirror switch left and right, as two mirror perpendicular to each other, it will create an image where left and right are not switched. Use matrices to prove how it is possible.
Original question: It is well known that plane mirrors switch left and right. Two plane mirrors perpendicular to each other can create an image where left and right are not switched - you will see yourself exactly as other people see you. Use matrices to show how this is possible.
using matrix conception the problem is solved. Do comment for any difficulty.

Two plane mirrors, nearly parallel, are facing each otherd1 = 2.2m apart as in (Figure 1) . You stand d2 = 1.8maway from one of these mirrors and look into it. You will see multiple images of yourself. parta-how far away from you is the first image of yourself in the mirror in front of you? partb-How far away from you is the second image of yourself in the mirror in front of you? partc-How far away from you is...
PHYS 251 Recitation 04: Multiple&Curved Mirrors Section Date Names Equipment needed: two plane mirrors 1. The Mirror a. In the set of mirrors shown below (with a 45° angle between them), locate as many images of the object as you can. (For each image you locate, label it with the number of reflections involved in each one. (The sides of the mirrors facing the object are reflective.) lb. Now with the two mirrors you have, arrange them with an object...
Two flat mirrors are perpendicular to each other. An incoming beam of light makes an angle of θ with the first mirror as shown below. The outgoing beam makes an angle of 68° with the plane of second mirror. Determine θ, the angle of impact.
You stand between two flat mirrors on opposite walls and see multiple images of yourself in each mirror. If you are 2.0 m from the mirror on your left and 4.0 m from the mirror on your right, find the distance to the first three images in the mirror on your left, measured from where you are standing.
Various astronauts on the Apollo missions left an array of "retroreflectors" on the moon allowing for a continuous measurement of lunar distance (fig. lb). In essence, a retroreflector is constructed by a corner cube of mirrors (think of the corner of a room where the walls meet the ceiling). The operation of a retroreflector can be understood along a given direction by considering right angle mirror (fig. la). a)With reference to this figure, use the law of reflection to prove...
An object is placed between two plane mirrors (M1 and M2) which face each other. The object is 0.81 meters from M1 and the distance between the two mirrors is 2.0 meters. Mirror M2 forms an image of the image formed by mirror M1. What is the distance in meters of this image of an image from the surface mirror M1? Units are required in the answer.
Two upright plane mirrors, 0.99 m tall, are placed facing each other, parallel, and 3.04 m apart. The top of the mirror on the right is then moved back a little so that its surface tilts away from the other mirror at an angle of 11.0° from the vertical. A laser beam passes perpendicularly through a small hole in the very bottom of the mirror on the left and strikes the tilted mirror, from which it reflects. How many times...
Suppose the transmission axes of the left and right polarizing disks are perpendicular to each other. Also, let the center disk be rotated on the common axis with and angular speed ω, this means θ = ωt. a) Show that if unpolarized light is incident on the left disk with an intensity of Imax, the intensity of the beam emerging from the right disk is: I = 1 16 Imax (1 − Cos(4ωt)) You will find the following trigonometric identities...
You and your friend (to your right) are now at a funhouse "infinity mirror". You stand 1 m apart, with your eyes centered between two plane mirrors that are 2 m apart (1 behind you, 1 in front of you). a. How far behind the mirror does the first (closest) reflection of your friend appear to you in m? This means the length of a line between the virtual image of your friend and the mirror. b. How far behind...
Q 34.3: Two plane mirrors make an angle of 90° with each other. The maximum number of images of an object placed between them is Q 34.4: The image produced by a convex mirror of an erect object in front of the mirror is always
