same distance
The answer is 15 millimeters behind the mirror, and the distance from the actual object to the image is 30 millimeters. Plane mirrors have a flat focus that places the image as far behind the mirror as you are in front of it.
Since the mirror reflects the image in front of it, the apparent distance of oneself standing in the mirror will be twice as far as the distance from you to the mirror. If you are standing 2 meters from the mirror, the image will appear as 4 meters away.
A mirror is formed by a glass plate with a reflective coating behind it. A mirror reflects the right that hits it, thereby forming an image of what is in front of the mirror.
Absolute value is related to distance because distance is not a signed quantity. For instance, if you were 100 metres in front of something, your distance to it would be 100 metres. If you were 100 metres behind it, your distance to it would still be 100 metres, not -100 metres.
Usually as we say the details of the image we point out their, size, position, type and nature. In case of plane mirror, size = same size of the object position = at the same distance as the object is in front of the mirror type - erect one nature - virtual image. This means could be seen but not be caught on a screen.
It's equal. The way the light reflects means that you end up the same distance away from it as you are reflected in it. That's if what I remember from Physics lessons is true :P Hope this helps :)
It's a virtual reflection of the object which appears as an image as much behind the mirror as the distance of the object in front.

A plane mirror forms 1 virtual image and no real image. The virtual image is behind the mirror, at the same distance as the object in front of the mirror, erect, in mirror image left-right.
The distance between the object and mirror is 15 mm. The distance between the image and mirror is 15 mm. Therefore, the distance between the image and object is 15 mm plus 15 mm which equals 30 mm.
If you are in front of a flat mirror, your image appears to be twice the distance from you as the mirror.In optics they use ray diagrams to demonstrate this. If you did not know the mirror was there, the image would be 4 meters from you, two meters behind the mirror.
Characteristics of an image formed by the plane mirror are :- * Virtual and erect (up right ) . * The image is of same size as that of the object . *The image is far behind the mirror as the object is in front of it . *The image is laterally inverted .
A plane mirror is not curved so it does not have a center of curvature. Or if you want to be mathematically correct, you could say that it's center of curvature is at an infinite distance from the mirror.
Yes. In convex mirrors, the image is always erect and diminished, at whatever distance the object may be in front of the mirror. The convex mirror has a wide field of view and hence is used as a rear view( or driving) mirror in vehicles, to view the traffic behind.
Is there a trick? If your eyes are 52cm from the plane of the mirror (which also is where the image is) then by consequence 52cm is the answer.... where the butterfly is or isn't is not relevant so long as its image is in the mirror.
Plane mirror images are always erect and virtual and appear as far behind the mirror as the distance of the object in front of the mirror. So, I think that it doesn't really matter what size the mirror is. I believe it is just how far you stand away from the mirror. The farther away the more image you can view.
