Question
An image is formed by a plane mirror. The height of the image is ____ the height of the object.
- Equal to
- Greater than
- Smaller than
- None of the above
Hint:
The height of the image produced by a plane mirror is equal to the height of the object.
The correct answer is: Equal to
- A plane mirror forms an image exactly the same size as the object. Size is either the length, width, or height of an object.
- Therefore, the height of the image produced by a plane mirror is equal to the height of the object.

An incident ray goes along the reflecting surface. The angle of reflection is ____ degrees.
When the angle along the reflecting surface , the incident ray is perpendicular to the reflecting surface. We know by the first law of reflection that angle of incidence is equal to angle of reflection . Here, the angle of incidence is 90 degrees so the angle of reflection will also be 90 degrees.
