Plane Mirrors starts at 7 and continues till grade 12.
QuestionsToday has an evolving set of questions to continuously challenge students so that their knowledge grows in Plane Mirrors.
How you perform is determined by your score and the time you take.
When you play a quiz, your answers are evaluated in concept instead of actual words and definitions used.
See sample questions for grade 10
A person is standing 3 m in front of a plane mirror. If the person moves 1 m away from the mirror, what is the new distance between the person and their image?
A person stands 2 m in front of a plane mirror. How far is the person from their image?
A plane mirror is rotated by 10°. By how many degrees does the reflected ray rotate?
A ray of light is incident on a plane mirror at 45°. What will be the angle between the incident ray and the reflected ray?
A ray of light is incident on a plane mirror at an angle of 25° to the normal. What is the angle between the incident and reflected rays?
Describe lateral inversion with respect to plane mirrors.
Describe the orientation of the image formed by a plane mirror relative to the object.
Describe what happens to the image if the plane mirror is moved closer to the object.
Explain why a person can see their full image in a plane mirror that is only half their height.
Explain why a plane mirror cannot form a real image.
Explain why the image in a plane mirror appears to be behind the mirror.
Explain why words appear reversed in a plane mirror.
If a person moves 1 m closer to a plane mirror, by how much does the distance between the person and their image change?
