If a driver has one convex and one plane rear-view mirror, how would the images in each mirror appear different?
The appearance of images in a convex and plane rear-view mirror are as follows:
Images formed in a plane mirror | Images formed in a convex mirror |
1. Same size as the object. | 1. Smaller than the object. |
2. Image distance from the mirror is equal to the object distance from the mirror. | 2. Image distance from the mirror is not equal to the object distance from the mirror. |
3. It produces a small field of view. | 3. It produces a large field of view. |
Explanation
A convex mirror produces a wider field of view, and always forms virtual, erect, and small-sized images of a large number of objects at the same time.
Whereas a plane mirror produces a small field of view, and always forms the image at an equal distance from the mirror, and the size of the image formed is equal to the size of the object.
