About This Product
Different parts of the surface send reflected rays in different directions, so students moving closer, farther away or to one side can note which parts of their image grow, shrink or stretch. The model gives Light And Optics lessons a starting point for the law of reflection and curved mirrors before formal ray diagrams, and links to anamorphic art.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. Does the Distorted Reflection Mirror Model need electricity? No. It works with ambient or classroom light and needs no power supply.
Q2. Why does the image look distorted? Different parts of the curved or uneven surface reflect light in different directions, so the image can appear stretched, compressed, enlarged or reduced.
