What is the number of images of an object formed by two mirrors if the angle between the mirrors is between 2π/4 and 2π/5?
Correct answer: D. 4
- A. 10
- B. 8
- C. 6
- D. 4
Explanation
When the angle between two mirrors falls between 2π/4 and 2π/5, the number of images formed by the mirrors is 4. This is determined by the formula that relates the number of images to the angle between the mirrors. Options A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not align with this formula.

About Optics
Light is studied through reflection, refraction, dispersion, interference, diffraction and polarization, linking ray behavior with its wave nature. Questions may involve mirrors, lenses, optical instruments, refractive index and image formation, while geometrical optics deals with rays and wave optics explains effects such as interference and diffraction.
