what will be the image of the word reflection in a plane mirror? what fraction of letters remains same in the image? why others do not ?
Answers
Answer:
Because plane mirror give the The image of an object as seen in a mirror is its mirror reflection or mirror image. In such an image, the right side of the object appears on the left side and vice versa. A mirror-image is therefore said to be laterally inverted and the phenomenon is called the lateral inversion.
Some letters don’t change upon reflection. In other words, they are the same as that of their Mirror Images. The letters having identical mirror images are A, H, I, M, O, T, U, V, W, X, Y. Similarly, in small letters we have i, l, o, v, w, and x that have the same Mirror Image as that of their original images. The number 1 and 8 are the only two numbers with their identical mirror images.
Any object that has a bilateral symmetry will have its mirror image the same as that of the object. By that, we mean that if you were to draw a line from top to bottom that splits the object into two parts, such that both the parts can be superimposed onto each other, the object’s Mirror Image will be same as that of the object’s image.
The image of the word REFLECTION in a plane mirror will be latterly inverted.
3/10 (I,O.N ) letters will remain same in image the others would not be same in image as the other letters as the look same from both sides when inverted.
