Which of th efollowing statements are correct?

Answer»

A ray of light is incident on a plane MIRROR and gets reflected. If the mirror is rotated through an angle `theta`, then the reflected ray gets deviated through angle `2theta`
A ray of light gets reflected successively from two mirrors which are mutually inclined. Angular deviation suffered by the ray does not depend upon an angle of incidence on first mirror
A plane mirror cannot FORM real image of a real object
If an object APPROACHED toward a plane mirror with velocity v, then the image approaches the object with velocity 2v.

Solution : a. Angle `BOB^(')=angleAOB^(')angleA0B^(')`
`=2i-(2i-2theta)=2theta`

Total deviation `DELTA=delta_(1)+delta_(2)`
`=(180^(@)-2theta)+180^(@)-2(alpha-omega)`
`=360^(@)-2ALPHA`

which is independent of angleof incidence.
c. Power of a plane mirror is zero.
d. Velocity of the image toward the object `=v+v=2v.`
