The answer depends on the angle between the mirrors. The distance between the mirrors does not, in theory, make any difference.


If the angle between the mirrors is x degrees, then the theoretical number of images is (360/x)- 1 which is rounded down. In practice, minor defects in the mirrors, refraction, total internal refraction, absorptions, scattering etc will reduce the number of images.

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.


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.


How many images of a candle will be formed if it is placed between two parallel plane mirrors separated by 40 cm?

An infinite number of images of the candle will be formed as the light rays reflect back and forth between the two mirrors. Each successive image will be located at a distance of 40 cm from the previous one.


How the angle between 2 mirrors affect the images formed?

Would Images formed by curved mirrors will look identical to to the images formed by flat mirrors?

No. They will look different.


How many images formed when two mirrors are at a 30 degree angle?

To find out how many images are formed when plane mirrors are tilted at an angle, use the formula N=360/a-1 , wherein N is the number of images formed and a is the given angle. So in this case, N=360/30-1, will result to N=11 images formed.


How many images of a candle will be formed if it is is placed between two parallel mirrors separated by 40 cm?

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.


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.


When an object is placed between two parallel mirrors the number of images formed will be?

Infinite.


How many images are formed when two plane mirrors tilted an angle 72 degrees?

When two plane mirrors are tilted at an angle of 72 degrees, six images are formed. The first two images are the direct reflections from each mirror, and the remaining four images come from the multiple reflections between the mirrors.


What is the number of images formed by two plane mirrors when the angle between them is fifteen degrees?

23


How many images are formed when two plane mirrior are arranged parallel?

infinite number of images are formed in both the mirrors if the mirrors are kept parallel
