Understanding Mirror Glass Reflection

The video explains how common mirror glass reflects and transmits light, with about half of the light being reflected and half passing through. In a dark room, the transmitted light allows visibility of the other side, while in a bright room, the reflected light overpowers the light from the other side, making it difficult to see through.

What percentage of light does common mirror glass reflect from either side?

• 25%

• 50%

• 75%

• 100%

In a dark room, why is the other side of the mirror easily visible?

• Because the mirror absorbs all the light

• Because the mirror reflects all the light

• Because the mirror lets half the light through

• Because the mirror blocks all the light

What happens to the light from the other side in a bright room?

• It is overpowered by the reflected bright light

• It is completely absorbed

• It becomes more visible

• It is reflected back

How does the brightness of a room affect the visibility through a mirror?

• The brightness of the room has no effect

• The darker the room, the less visible the other side

• The brighter the room, the more visible the other side

• The brighter the room, the less visible the other side

What is the primary factor that determines visibility through a mirror in different lighting conditions?

• The thickness of the mirror

• The angle of the mirror

• The color of the mirror

• The amount of light reflected and transmitted
