Question

What is lateral inversion? Explain with one eg. Where we can use this phenomenon.

Answer 1

The phenomenon due to which left-hand side of an object appears as right-hand side of the object and vice versa is called lateral inversion. For example, the word AMBULANCE is painted left-right inverted on the ambulance so that when the driver of a vehicle in front looks into his rear-view mirror, he can make out the word AMBULANCE quickly and give way.

We can see this phenomenon in an Ambulance vehicle...
Hope this will help you ....✌

Answer 2

The phenomenon where your left appears as the right and vice versa in a mirror is referred to as Lateral Inversion.

A very similar thing happens if you write a word say 'MIRROR' on a piece of paper and keep in front of the mirror.
