What do you understand by multiple images?
a number of images that are formed if the object is placed between two mirrors at an angle. This is called multiple images.
Can the image formed by a plain mirror be obtained on a screen?
Plane mirrors do not create images that can be placed on a screen, only concave mirrors can.
How many images of a candle will be formed if it is placed between parallel plane mirrors separated by 40 cm?
in my opinion only 2 images will be formed because the mirror is parallel and the candle between the mirror will stop the reflection.
What happens when two mirrors face each other in a certain angle?
Depending on the angle between them, you will get multiple reflections of any object between the mirrors. If the mirrors meet at an angle of x degrees, an object placed between them should generate a maximum of (360/n) - 1 images. Parallel mirrors should, on that basis, produce an infinite number of images but because of microscopic flaws in the mirror, absorption, internal refraction etc, the images will degrade more or less exponentially.
Why are multiple images formed when two mirrors are placed at right angles to each other?
With two mirrors at right angles you will have 3 (360/90 - 1) images of an object. Two of these are primary and the third is secondary. Some light rays from the object bounce of each of the mirrors to your eye to form the two primary images. But there are other rays that bounce off a mirror onto the second mirror before they get to you. This produced the secondary image.
When two mirrors are placed an angleof 60 degrees to each other the images formed are?
at 120 degrees
What will be the angle between two plane mirrors if 8 images of an object placed symmetrically are to be formed?
45 degrees.
How many images will be formed if two mirrors placed at 120 degree angle?
2 images are formed
How many images formed by two plane mirrors placed at 90 degree?
Three images will be formed
How many images are formed when two mirrors are placed at a right angle?
3 Images
How many images will be formed if two mirrors placed at 60 degree angle?
5
When an object is placed between two parallel mirrors the number of images formed will be?
Infinite.

Can the image formed by a plain mirror be obtained on a screen?
Plane mirrors do not create images that can be placed on a screen, only concave mirrors can.
How many images are formed from two mirrors perpendicular to each other?
If 2 mirrors are placed perpendicular to each other then infinite no of images will be formed because image formed by one mirror will act as the object for the other and vice verse.
Why infinite images formed if a candle is placed between two parallel mirrors?
Because - if the mirrors are exactly parallel - they will reflect each others image indefinitely.
Two plane mirrors are inclined at an angle of 300 to each other Find the number of images formed when an object is placed between the mirrors?
1/5
