Question

The score card is seen through a pinhole camera during a cricket match. If a

player hits a six, then the observer will see a score card of

(a) 9 (b) 6 (c) Laterally inverted 9 (d) Laterally inverted 6.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

(c) laterally inverted

Answer 2

If a player hits a six, then the observer will see a scorecard of Laterally inverted 9

Why it's laterally inverted 9?

• Images created by a pinhole camera are upside down and laterally inverted.
• As a result, the spectator will perceive a 9 that is laterally reversed.

Laterally inverted:

• A planar mirror seems to reverse left to right rather than top to bottom.
• Lateral inversion is indeed the reversal of such a mirror image in which the right side of the item appears just on the left side behind the mirror.
