A vertical mirror reflects light in a way that reverses the direction of the reflected rays. This means that the image is formed on the same side of the mirror as the object, but it is reversed so that the letters and numbers are flipped vertically.
Example:
Consider a string of letters facing upwards. When reflected in a vertical mirror, the letters will appear to be upside down. This is because the light is reversed at the mirror, causing the letters to flip their vertical orientation.
Key Points:
The distance between the mirror and the object remains the same, regardless of the object's size.
The image formed by the mirror is a virtual image, meaning it is not real to the object.
The image is the same size as the object, but it is inverted.
The mirror reflects all the light that falls on it, including the image formed by the object
