ABSTRACT
This chapter presents seven experimental lab cases which is study of the formation of images when an object or a laser beam source is placed in front of a plane mirror. The cases are: a candle placed in front of a fixed plane mirror and between two plane mirrors at right angles, tracing a laser beam passing between two plane mirrors at different angles, and tracing a laser beam incident on a rotating plane mirror. Plane mirrors are made from a piece of glass polished on one side. If one stands before a plane mirror, one sees an upright image of oneself as far “behind” the mirror as one’s position in front of it. All plane mirrors form an upright image equal to the height of the object placed in front them. Lettering read in a plane mirror is reversed right to left as well. The images seen in plane mirrors are always virtual for real objects.
