This is the question and the answer choices. I thought it would be mirror one creates E and mirror 2 creates F, but It's not... help?
As PeterO says, extend mirror 1 (in this case, up and to the right). If the object is at O and the image is at point X then you should find that the mirror perpendicularly bisects OX. That is not true of OB.heatherro92 said:Then I would think B would be the image from 1, but then there is no image from 2... I mean D is perpendicular, but it is further away then the distance from the object to the original mirror

Periscope reflection is a type of reflection that occurs when light or sound waves bounce off a mirror at an angle and change direction. It is commonly used in periscopes, which are optical devices that allow people to see objects that are not in their direct line of sight.
Periscope reflection may seem backwards because the mirror used in a periscope reflects the light or sound waves in such a way that the image appears reversed. This is due to the way light or sound waves bounce off the mirror at an angle and change direction.
Yes, periscope reflection can be used for a variety of purposes, such as in submarine periscopes to see above the water's surface, in military and surveillance operations, and in medical procedures to view inside the body without invasive surgery.
To understand how periscope reflection works, it is important to know that light or sound waves travel in straight lines. When these waves hit a mirror at an angle, they reflect off at the same angle. The periscope uses multiple mirrors to reflect the waves multiple times, allowing the viewer to see around an obstacle.
Yes, periscope reflection is an important concept in science and has many practical applications. It is used in various fields such as physics, engineering, and optics. Understanding periscope reflection can also help us understand other phenomena, such as the reflection of light in mirrors and the behavior of sound waves.
