ID Code: L2-02
Purpose: To demonstrate how several light rays are used to locate the image in a plane mirror.
Description: A single central ray passes through a half-silvered mirror, with half deflected to act as the source at the tip of an object. By rotating the top mirror it can be shown that all rays starting at the object point (the rotating mirror) appear to come from the corresponding point behind the plane mirror (the image point). The image is a faint arrow at the right of the photographs.
