Discuss your experience when standing in front of different types of mirrors in a fun house or even in a clothing store. why do you look taller or shorter, narrower or wider, or distorted in other ways in these mirrors? maybe you’ve even seen more than one of yourself in a set of mirrors. describe your experience. are these trick mirrors or applications of physics? explain your answer

Answer

In fun house when we stand in front of different types of mirror we got our different type of images. In some mirrors we look slim ,in some we look fat while in some mirrors we look tall and in some mirrors we look short.

There are some terms which should be clear to understand about the physics of mirrors.

1. normal line,

Normal line is a line which is  drawn perpendicular to the mirror.

2. angle of incident

angle of incident is an angle between incident ray and normal

3. Angle of reflection

angle of reflection is an angle between reflected ray and normal

Mirrors in Fun house  work by changing the point at which a perpendicular line can be drawn on the mirror. Due to this change angle of incident and angle of reflection changes and it distorted the image hence we see different images for different normal of mirrors.

different images in fun house can also be created by tilting or curving different areas of the mirror.Again due to this angle of incident and angle of reflection changes and it distort the image.

In fun house usually concave and convex mirrors are used .concave and convex mirror gives different images of an object.

Convex mirror makes a person look shorter on the other hand concave mirror makes a person look taller.

These are not trick mirrors but there is physics behind them.

In fun house there are some mirrors which are not fully convex or concave, but concave in some areas and convex in other areas. This means that from the side the mirror would not appear in an arch, like convex or concave mirrors, but instead in waves.

the earths atmosphere is made up of nitrogen and oxygen. solids can turn into gasses through a process called sublimation. sublimation is the transition of a substance directly from the solid to the gas phase, without passing through the intermediate liquid phase.
