About This Product
Placing a candle or pin at different distances from each mirror lets students record whether the image is magnified or diminished, erect or inverted, real or virtual, and check the result against ray diagrams. The set supports reflection and spherical mirror practicals in school and college physics. Enquiries from Zimbabwe, Comoros, Bangladesh, Dominican Republic and Tanzania for the Concave and convex mirror receive an export quotation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which mirror in the set forms real images on a screen?
The concave mirror. A screen is used to locate the real images it forms, while the convex mirror is used for comparison.
