Aim: To demonstrate the formation of multiple images by using two plane mirrors.

Aim: To demonstrate the formation of multiple images by using two plane mirrors.

Material required: Two mirror, a sheet of white paper, a ball and a tape.

Procedure:
1. Join the two plane mirrors with the tape  to make a hinge .
2. Now place them vertically on the sheet of paper so that mirror make an angle of 90° .
3. Place the candle in between the mirrors and observe the number of images formed.
4. Now, change the angle between the mirrors to 120° and again record the number of images formed.
5. Repeat the activity for angles 45°, 60°, and 180° and record the number of images in each case

Observations: you will observe that the number of images formed increases as the angle between mirrors is reduced. You can calculate the number of images formed by the given formula _
Number of images=(360/n) -1
Wherr n is the angle between the two mirrors.
Hence, when angle was 90°, then
Number of images =(360/90) - 1= 4-1=3
When angle was 45°, then
Number of images =( 360/45)-1=8-1=7 and soon

Now , place the mirrors parallel to each other , In this case , the angle between them will be zero .
Hence, number of images=(360/0) -1= infinite -1=infinite

So, in this case ,you will find infinite number if images.

project on adsorption

                     Adsorption Introduction There are several examples, which reveal that the surface of a solid has the tendency to attract and retain the molecules of the phase with which it  comes into contact. Thesemolecules remain only at the surface and do not go deeper into the bulk. Adsorption The accumulation of molecular species at the surface rather than in the bulk of a solid or liquid is termed  adsorption.   Adsorbate The molecular species or substance, which concentrates or accumulates at the surface is termed adsorbate . Adsorbent The material on the surface  of which the adsorption takes place is called adsorbent . Adsorption in action (i) If a gas like O2 , H2  , CO, Cl2  , NH3  or SO2   is taken in a closed vessel  containing powdered charcoal, it is observed that the pressure of the  gas in the enclosed vessel decreases. The gas molecules concentrate...

Laws of Motion – Class 11 Physics NCERT | Newton’s Three Laws, Formulas & Derivations

🧲 Laws of Motion – Class 11 Physics (NCERT) The Laws of Motion were given by Sir Isaac Newton and are fundamental to understanding force, motion, and mechanics in physics. This chapter from Class 11 NCERT explains how forces affect the motion of objects. 📘 Newton's First Law of Motion (Law of Inertia) Statement: A body remains at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force. 🔹 This law defines inertia – the natural tendency of objects to resist change in their motion. Inertia depends on mass. More mass → more inertia. 📌 Real-Life Example: You fall forward when a bus suddenly stops. 📘 Newton's Second Law of Motion Statement: The rate of change of momentum of an object is directly proportional to the applied force and takes place in the direction of the force. ✅ Derivation: Momentum, p = mv Rate of change of momentum = d(mv)/dt = m dv/dt = ma (if mass is constant) F = ma 📌 This is t...
