Find the angle of deviation for the given diagram.

  • A
    $180^{\circ} - 2\theta$
  • B
    $90^{\circ} - \theta$
  • C
    $180^{\circ} - 2\theta$ is incorrect,the correct answer is $180^{\circ} - 2i$. Since $i = 90^{\circ} - \theta$,the deviation $\delta = 180^{\circ} - 2(90^{\circ} - \theta) = 2\theta$.
  • D
    $360^{\circ} - 2\theta$

$A$ person is in a room whose ceiling and two adjacent walls are mirrors. How many images are formed?

$A$ light bulb is placed between two plane mirrors inclined at an angle of $60^{\circ}$. The number of images formed is:

Assertion : If the angle between the two plane mirrors is $72^o$ and the object is asymmetrically placed between the two mirrors,then $5$ images of the object will be formed.
Reason : For a given system of mirrors,the total number of images formed due to successive reflection is equal to either $\frac{360^o}{\theta}$ or $\frac{360^o}{\theta} - 1$ accordingly as $\frac{360^o}{\theta}$ is odd or even respectively.

$A$ ray of light travelling in the direction $\frac{1}{2}(\hat{i}+\sqrt{3} \hat{j})$ is incident on a plane mirror. After reflection,it travels along the direction $\frac{1}{2}(\hat{i}-\sqrt{3} \hat{j})$. The angle of incidence is: (in $^{\circ}$)

The reflecting surface of a plane mirror is vertical. $A$ particle is projected in a vertical plane which is also perpendicular to the mirror. The initial velocity of the particle is $10 \, m/s$ and the angle of projection is $60^\circ$ with the horizontal. The point of projection is at a distance $5 \, m$ from the mirror. The particle moves towards the mirror. Just before the particle touches the mirror,the velocity of approach of the particle and its image is ...... $m/s$.
