State the number of images of an object ...

State the number of images of an object placed between two mirrors, formed in each case when mirrors are inclined to each other at `60^@`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`theta=60^@`
Now, `n=(360//theta)-1=(360//60)-1` =6-1=3
Hence number of images = 5
