Two large plane mirrors PM and PN are arrange as shown. The length of the part of large screen SS' in which two image of the object placed at P can be seen is x (in m). Find the value `sqrt3x.`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
2


The normals for the mirror PM is PS. and the normal to the mirror PN is PS. From the geometry of the figure it can be seen that SS. `x = x = (2)/(sqrt3).`
so, `sqrt3 x = 2`
