\nTry to make a periscope like this and see whether it works or not?
\n\"AP
\nAnswer:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The periscope does not work.<\/li>\n
  2. The slits made must be parallel to each other.<\/li>\n
  3. If the slits are parallel then the mirror strips placed in them will give reflections property and the image of the object can be seen.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Question 2.
    \ni) Draw reflected ray in the figure given here.
    \n\"AP
    \nAnswer:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. The angle of incidence \u2220i = 45\u00b0 = angle of reflection = \u2220r = 45\u00b0C<\/li>\n
    2. OR is the incident ray<\/li>\n
    3. RB is the reflected ray<\/li>\n
    4. NR is the normal drawn to the reflecting surface.

      Question 3.
      \nHow do you relate to the angle of reflection and angle of incidence? What will be the angle of reflection when the angle of incidence is i) 60\u00b0 ii)0\u00b0?
      \nAnswer:
      \nAngle of incidence \u2220i = angle of reflection \u2220r
      \nIf \u2220i = 60\u00b0 then \u2220r = 60\u00b0

                  2. Due to the formation of multiple images of the people walking in the street, they often were put to confusion.<\/li>\n
                  3. It is difficult for birds to live or fly in that street as the reflections will give confusion to them.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                    Question 14.
                    \nTake an empty toothpaste box and two mirror strips of the required size and make a periscope.
                    \nAnswer:
                    \nClose both ends of the box. Draw squares at both ends. Draw the diagonal to these squares. Slit the diagonals with a blade. The slits should equal to the length of the mirror strips. Fix the mirror strips in these slits. Take care to see that these mirror strips lie parallel to each other, with their reflecting surfaces facing each other. Fix the mirror strips firmly to the box with a few drops of molten wax from a burning candle or fevicol. Cut out two widows on the narrow sides of the box. The windows should open directly on the reflecting surfaces of the mirror strips. Now the periscope is ready to see.<\/p>\n

                      \n
                    1. A concave mirror forms the real image of an object.<\/li>\n
                    2. A convex mirror forms the virtual image of an object.<\/li>\n
