Physics graded assignment

1)How many images would you get for an object that is placed between two mirrors placed at an angle less than 90(degrees)?

There should be 2-3 images as more images are produced if the angles are smaller.

2) What happens to the images of this angle if it is bigger than 90(degrees)?

The number of images produced will decrease.

3) How do mirrors produce funny images?

This is because of mirrors known as convex and concave mirrors. Convex mirrors bulge outwards therefore making us look fatter while Concave mirrors bulge inwards making us look thinner.
