Given

  • θ = 40°

To Find

  • Number of images formed

Solution

☯ Number of images = (360/θ) - 1

  • Here the value of θ is 40° as the mirrors are inclined at an angle of 40°

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

✭ According to the Question :

➞ Number of images = (360/θ) - 1

➞ Number of images = (360/40) - 1

➞ Number of images = (36/4) - 1

➞ Number of images = 9 - 1

➞ Number of images = 8

∴ The answer to the Question is option a ( Only 8 )

Appropriate Question :

⠀⠀⠀⠀━━ Two plane mirrors are inclined at an angle 40⁰ between them. Number of ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀images seen of a tiny object kept between them is :

⠀⠀⠀⠀1). Only 8 ⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀2). Only 9

⠀⠀⠀⠀3). 8 or 9

⠀⠀⠀⠀4). 9 or 10

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀{\underline{ \mathrm {\:\:The\:number \:of\:images \:formed \:is\:\bf{8\:\:[ \:Option\:A \:\:: \:(Only\:8)\:\:].\:\:}}}}\\

Given : Two plane mirrors are inclined at an angle 40⁰ \bf [\:\theta\:] between them .

Exigency To Find : Number of images formed of a tiny object .

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━⠀

\dag\:\:\sf{ As,\:We\:know\:that\::}\\\\ \qquad \maltese\:\: \bf Number\:of\:Images\:Formed\:: \\\\

\qquad \dag\:\:\bigg\lgroup \sf{ Number _{(Images \:Formed \:)} \:: \bigg( \dfrac{360}{\theta }\bigg) - 1  }\bigg\rgroup \\\\

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Here ,  \bf \theta is the angle between them & which is 40 .

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀\underline {\boldsymbol{\star\:Now \: By \: Substituting \: the \: known \: Values \::}}\\

\qquad :\implies \sf   Number _{(Images \:Formed)} \: = \: \bigg( \dfrac{360}{\theta }\bigg) - 1  \\

\qquad :\implies \sf   Number _{(Images \:Formed)} \: = \: \bigg( \dfrac{360}{40 }\bigg) - 1  \\

\qquad :\implies \sf   Number _{(Images \:Formed)} \: = \: \bigg(\cancel {\dfrac{360}{40 }}\bigg) - 1 \qquad \qquad \\ [ Canceled by 40 ]

\qquad :\implies \sf   Number _{(Images \:Formed)} \: = \: 9 - 1  \\

\qquad :\implies \sf   Number _{(Images \:Formed)} \: = \: 8  \\

\qquad:\implies \frak{\underline{\purple{\:Number _{(Images \:Formed)} \: = \: 8    }} }\:\:\bigstar \\

Therefore,

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀\therefore {\underline{ \mathrm {\:Hence,\:The\:number \:of\:images \:formed \:is\:\bf{8}}}}\\
