If they are back to back, only 1.

If they are face to face,it's not infinite, it's finite, because the speed of light is finite.

Actually, when you look at one of these mirrors, the number of images will increase continuously at the velocity "c", so you can accept that its limit is infinite, but in other hand it's finite because the speed of light "c" is finite, it's a physical "optical" paradox.

in my opinion only 2 images will be formed because the mirror is parallel and the candle between the mirror will stop the reflection.

How many images do you think will be formed if an object is kept between two plane mirrors parallel to each other?

If the mirrors are exactly parallel - there will be an infinite number of images, as they will be reflected indefinitely.


Why do you see many images of your self when you stand between two parallel mirrors?

when we stand between two parallel mirrors the first one reflects us and the second one reflects the first mirror this is why we see many images of our self when you stand between two parallel mirrors.

How many images are formed when 2 mirors are parellel to each other and an object is placed in between it?

In theory, there should be infinitely many images. In practice, though, imperfections in the mirrors, diffusion in glass and the air gap between the mirrors mean that there are not infinitely many images.

In theory, there should be an infinite number. In practice, though, the quality of the mirrors - the reflective surfaces as well as the glass in front of them - will reduce that number. The separation between the mirrors will also play a role by dispersing light as it bounces back and forth between the mirrors.
