When the ball is further away from the mirror than the focal point, the concave mirror should form a real image as the same side of the ball. How are we able to see that image in this video? Or what exactly are we seeing when we see the ball is on this side of the focal point?
That is kind of redundant saying. They don't need to be from infinity. You can get parallel rays by having, let's say, an array of laser pointers. The point is, when you have a normal source of light (bulb, candle,...) at non-infinity, the rays go from its center in all directions. If you have a distant source (like the Sun), it still goes in all directions from the Sun, but the rays hitting your location are almost parallel. If the source is in infinity, it would be truly parallel...
The thing is, it works also in the opposite way - parallel rays converge to the focal point (that is how the parabolic antenna works, the dish focuses the signal to the small receiver), but if the light source IS in the focal point, the reflected rays will be parallel (that is how some car lights work)
Yeah, it's weird. We used to live in a world where we'd comment that the CGI was "looking almost real". Now we comment that our reality "looks almost CGI". We're losin' it, a little more every day. 😬☹️
@DogMan Haha.. I was going to throw a flat earth comment in as well.. But... I saw this and thought I'd just laugh instead (and write a short comment that actually got progressively longer as I decided to explain myself)
Nitin K raised another question: Can we see the real image at different angles, or we can see it only straight in front of the mirror? Answer: When forming a real image on a screen, the image will be in a certain location on the screen. If the object is centered in front of the mirror, the real image will be centered on the screen. If the object is not centered, the image will not be centered either.
i studied optic for like 10 times but never get to see it in reality. dude thats like magic and its facinating. i never understood the consept of "virtual and real" image. once i saw this it started to makes sense. while the ball swings it looks like the ball coming from behind of the mirror and after a point (f point) it looks like the image switches dimensions and actually swing toward you. its crazy to me.
Very informative demonstration. A possibly useful supplement would be to have a series of graphics plotting the path that the light takes at the different points in the movement of the ball, as it might help students understand why the reflection inverts. Thanks for posting.
Thanks a lot sir for explaining it in a very interesting way. But I have one question that I do not understand for a long time. As far as I know we can not see real image until we project them on a screen. Also we know concave mirrors produce real image when object is placed more than focal point. So how we are able to see the image within the mirror without projecting it on a screen ?
This confused me bc the mirror is 360’ What about the effect on the left and right? This must also switch, but the ball is only divided 180’. I would like to se this demo with four color patterns divided in fourths. My imagination tells me that the ball’ reflection will appear to spin?
Would be interesting to see, don't think you'd get a spinning effect though, might even be if you imagine every line you could draw from the centre of a circle to the edge (cross section of the ball), every line might actually be effectively mirrored in a perpendicular plane that passes through the centre of the circle, so on a clock face the 1 and 7 would switch places, and 10 would swap with 4 etc, due to all the spherical curvature going on with the mirror and ball, in this case all the imaginary lines in the top half of the circle get mirrored across the centre into the bottom and vice versa causing an apparent vertical mirroring effect, when it's actually a circular mirroring across all angles which as I write this I realise would give the same end result of a simple horizontal+vertical mirroring. But what ever would happen I think it would still happen suddenly as it passed back and forth through that middle point rather than looking like it is spinning. After thinking about it that much I definitely want to see it also
You get reflection symmetry through a _point._ Looking head-on, each point on the edge of the ball gets reflected to a point on the opposite side of the ball. (Technically, you get reflection symmetry through the point at the center of the disk defined by looking at the ball head-on, which is the same as saying "the image of the ball _projected_ onto a 2D plane normal to our line of sight.) So to answer your question: No, you wouldn't see spinning. Imagine a ball with 4 colors: red, yellow, green, blue, say, going clockwise, starting with red on the top right of the ball. In the reflection when the ball is far from the concave mirror, you'd see green, blue, red, yellow. Fun fact: it turns out reflection through a point in a 2D plane is equivalent to two reflections across orthogonal lines (e.g., reflecting across the x-axis and then y-axis, in either order). Fun fact 2: reflection through a point in a 2D plane is equivalent to a 180° rotation. *Note*, however, that you wouldn't see _any spinning,_ as this "rotation" is just the operation that you imagine to map the colors on the ball to the location of the colors in the reflection. In some sense, the "rotation" happens the instant the ball crosses the focal point and the image switches instantly to its "rotated" version. Hope this helps. Sorry if the words are confusing-I tried to keep everything clear.
British Gas once had a demonstration of a large concave mirror with a white hot limestone ball floating on a powerful gas flame. You viewed it from one spot and saw a vast (virtual) white hot 'Sun' slowly rotating, filling your field of view. (The roaring gas torch added to the drama!)
Woah! Do you know where I can view this? Is there footage online? That seems like something I'd pay to see in person. MOSI the Museum Of Science and Industry has some really cool demos like that, such as a huge indoor tornado simulator and a massive fire vortex, but nothing like what you described.
@@DanteYewToob I have looked for it without success. I think it was an exhibit in a Hultons Boys & Girls Exhibition in Olympia London in the 50s or 60s (I am in my 70s) These were created to encourage interest in Science & Technology (worked for me!)
Interesting - do the red and blue areas when the ball is at the focal point reveal anything about deviations in the mirror's shape? Kind of thinking about the Foucault method of grinding parabolic reflectors for telescopes.
I wonder what would happen in a hypothetical perfect mirror. I imagine it would get bigger and bigger until it reaches a infinitely small point before switching ?
@@danilooliveira6580 The image is still a one to one representation. It appears bigger because the entire area of the mirror is reflecting a smaller section of the ball but is not enlarging any one section of the ball!
@@physicsdemos Hello sir, I have a question. I don't have a double sided mirror at home. But is the front side of the mirror concave and its opposite a convex? Or its front a plane mirror while its opposite side a concave?

Crazy how you can have a single reflection on a concave surface but multiple different objects in the reflection which are different orientations. When the ball is close enough to the inside of the mirror, it is upright while the background is inverted.
Another physics demo is conservation of energy where you hold the ball right next to the mirror and release it and it swings back and will never hit it.
If u mess this one up, u could just use that as your inelastic collision demo, as the mirror steals all the ball's energy when it shatters. Then just rewrite your lectures a bit to work some Newtonian physics into your optics class and ur set.
This demo has all to do with the tangent function. It's part of how the thin lens equation is derived. Similar triangles and all that. The image goes to and fro infinity. Negative infinity too. It's amazing.
I was hoping to see if the ball were swung side to side or parallel to the mirror if you would achieve the same or different effect. Thomas M. Dutkiewicz
When the image is inverted, it is a Real image. so how can we see it on the mirror?, pls don't say that my eyes are not right... I have searched this on many platforms and asked 1-2 teachers about this and my doubt has not been cleared until now. Thanks

The intensity of the light to an observer from a source is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the observer to the source. This shows that as the distance from a light source increases, the intensity of light is equal to a value multiplied by 1/d2.
If rays from the center of curvature bounce back to that point, does that mean that an object at that point would then be invisible from any perspective that doesn't view the mirror through that point?
Yes, of course. Sure for the optics portion of physics we did convex n concave mirrors and lenses but we may have overlooked this little detail or some of us . Here's something else :- I'm longsighted so I don't need specs for driving but a decade ago I noticed that to see objects clearly in my convex rear vision side mirror I needed to wear the reading spectacles , not immediately but eventually the penny dropped , it's cos I was viewing a virtual image rather than a reflection in the manner we are used to with flat mirrors. The virtual image being equivalent to two feet from my eyes instead of a hundred metres away say for the actual object. There's a phantom image position that can be traced somewhere behind mirror by following the convergence of light rays . Another optics phenomenon is with polarising filters . It's more a paradox that occurs when messing with three filters. There may be one or two good videos about it . John Gribbin in his book Schrödinger's Kittens leads into quantum theory from the paradox .
If you own a Movado watch with the museum face then you have one of these at 12 o'clock. A perfectly polished little concave mirror that is amazing under high magnification.
Our brain just adapt. Some dudes used a vr headset and displayed an image of their real time surrounding but upside down, after a while, their brains adapted pretty well. And when they took it off, they had the impression that the world was upside down.
Sir as you moved ball away from the mirror in between pole and Focal point then image is still forming in the mirror and its is still looks real, erected and enlarged but I studied when Object is placed between Pole and focal point imagae is formed beyond the mirror that is virtual and erected. Please explain Sir how it is possible ?
Yes, but you'll never be EXACTLY at the focal point. Just inside the focal point, the image is enormous and upright, and just outside the focal point, the image is enormous and inverted. So for all intents and purposes, the image near the focal point will be huge. Note also that near the focal point, any imperfections in the mirror, or any amount of being off axis, will distort the image.
Sunitha, the image is virtual when the object is inside of the focal point, and real when the object is outside of the focal point. Through the mirror, you can see both real and virtual images, as shown in the video. The difference is that when the object is outside of the focal point, you could also see the image on a screen, that is, you could put a screen in the image plane and see the image, if the object is bright enough.
Can Anyone please tell me why the real image is formed on the mirror? It should be on the respective position. For example-If an object is between C and F, then image should be Beyond C, then why actually it's formed inside the mirror? Please clear this doubt of mine.
For real images (concave mirror), all reflecting rays are meeting at the front of the mirror. Then how image of the object is visible at the back/beyond of the mirror.
Can we place a screen at the center of curvature to obtian the real image,but then we will see two images one on the glass and second on the screen how's it possible
When the ball is close to the mirror the upper portion of the mirror can only focus on and reflect the upper portion of the ball, when the ball is further away the upper portion of the mirror is focused on and reflecting the lower portion of the ball and vice versa!
i wish he had specified that the mirror was parbolic, not just concave. thats the reason it has those specific properties for the focal and double focal distances

A very good demo... Is the inverted image formed inside the mirror real or virtual. real images are formed when reflected rays from the mirror actually meet and virtual images are formed when reflected light rays appear to meet ..So the can the inverted image be got on the screen kept infront ?
It would be amazing if the reflection could be captured at an extremely high frame rat in the thousands. To see the transformation of the reflected image

Would it be possible to know the characteristics of your mirror, or to have the name of the supplier please. I tried with my concave mirror but it doesn't give results as good as you
So, the image is real between the pole and just ahead of the focus and virtually behind the focus? Also, what is infinity in mirrors? Thanks for the videos by the way, very helpful. -Asmi

When the ball is further away from the mirror than the focal point, the concave mirror should form a real image as the same side of the ball. How are we able to see that image in this video? Or what exactly are we seeing when we see the ball is on this side of the focal point?
Same doubt
same Q, have you found the answer?
"Parallel rays that come from infinity"
I've never heard this phase and am highly intrigued.
That is kind of redundant saying. They don't need to be from infinity. You can get parallel rays by having, let's say, an array of laser pointers.
The point is, when you have a normal source of light (bulb, candle,...) at non-infinity, the rays go from its center in all directions.
If you have a distant source (like the Sun), it still goes in all directions from the Sun, but the rays hitting your location are almost parallel. If the source is in infinity, it would be truly parallel...
The thing is, it works also in the opposite way - parallel rays converge to the focal point (that is how the parabolic antenna works, the dish focuses the signal to the small receiver), but if the light source IS in the focal point, the reflected rays will be parallel (that is how some car lights work)
The images when the ball was in motion looked so CGI-ed🤩
Yeah, it's weird.
We used to live in a world where we'd comment that the CGI was "looking almost real".
Now we comment that our reality "looks almost CGI".
We're losin' it, a little more every day.

@DogMan Haha.. I was going to throw a flat earth comment in as well.. But... I saw this and thought I'd just laugh instead (and write a short comment that actually got progressively longer as I decided to explain myself)
Nitin K raised another question: Can we see the real image at different angles, or we can see it only straight in front of the mirror? Answer: When forming a real image on a screen, the image will be in a certain location on the screen. If the object is centered in front of the mirror, the real image will be centered on the screen. If the object is not centered, the image will not be centered either.
Sir I asked," A real image WITHOUT A SCREEN can be seen from other angles or can be only seen from straight in front of the mirror ? "
Anyway my doubt has been cleared sir.Thank you very much sir for clearing my doubts.You are a wonderful teacher.
Without a screen, you can see the image from a variety of locations, not just on the axis.
Yes sir.
I really want to know how the moon reflects himself equal from all sides of the plane
The concave mirror with a pendulum. Otherwise known as instant migraine mirror.
i studied optic for like 10 times but never get to see it in reality. dude thats like magic and its facinating. i never understood the consept of "virtual and real" image. once i saw this it started to makes sense. while the ball swings it looks like the ball coming from behind of the mirror and after a point (f point) it looks like the image switches dimensions and actually swing toward you. its crazy to me.
Very informative demonstration. A possibly useful supplement would be to have a series of graphics plotting the path that the light takes at the different points in the movement of the ball, as it might help students understand why the reflection inverts. Thanks for posting.
Thanks a lot sir for explaining it in a very interesting way. But I have one question that I do not understand for a long time. As far as I know we can not see real image until we project them on a screen. Also we know concave mirrors produce real image when object is placed more than focal point. So how we are able to see the image within the mirror without projecting it on a screen ?
the retina of the eyes of we the observers, are the screens. The light rays from the real image arrive on the retina (screen) of our eyes.
This confused me bc the mirror is 360’ What about the effect on the left and right? This must also switch, but the ball is only divided 180’. I would like to se this demo with four color patterns divided in fourths. My imagination tells me that the ball’ reflection will appear to spin?
Very good point,i imagine so too.
Would be interesting to see, don't think you'd get a spinning effect though, might even be if you imagine every line you could draw from the centre of a circle to the edge (cross section of the ball), every line might actually be effectively mirrored in a perpendicular plane that passes through the centre of the circle, so on a clock face the 1 and 7 would switch places, and 10 would swap with 4 etc, due to all the spherical curvature going on with the mirror and ball, in this case all the imaginary lines in the top half of the circle get mirrored across the centre into the bottom and vice versa causing an apparent vertical mirroring effect, when it's actually a circular mirroring across all angles which as I write this I realise would give the same end result of a simple horizontal+vertical mirroring. But what ever would happen I think it would still happen suddenly as it passed back and forth through that middle point rather than looking like it is spinning. After thinking about it that much I definitely want to see it also
He demoed this with his hand at 0:29 and 1:07 :-)
@@biancabonet Maybe if I could find a little LSD after 35 years? Lol.
You get reflection symmetry through a _point._ Looking head-on, each point on the edge of the ball gets reflected to a point on the opposite side of the ball. (Technically, you get reflection symmetry through the point at the center of the disk defined by looking at the ball head-on, which is the same as saying "the image of the ball _projected_ onto a 2D plane normal to our line of sight.)
So to answer your question: No, you wouldn't see spinning. Imagine a ball with 4 colors: red, yellow, green, blue, say, going clockwise, starting with red on the top right of the ball. In the reflection when the ball is far from the concave mirror, you'd see green, blue, red, yellow.
Fun fact: it turns out reflection through a point in a 2D plane is equivalent to two reflections across orthogonal lines (e.g., reflecting across the x-axis and then y-axis, in either order).
Fun fact 2: reflection through a point in a 2D plane is equivalent to a 180° rotation. *Note*, however, that you wouldn't see _any spinning,_ as this "rotation" is just the operation that you imagine to map the colors on the ball to the location of the colors in the reflection. In some sense, the "rotation" happens the instant the ball crosses the focal point and the image switches instantly to its "rotated" version.
Hope this helps. Sorry if the words are confusing-I tried to keep everything clear.
All schools need to have this.
It is much more interesting when we practically see it.
British Gas once had a demonstration of a large concave mirror with a white hot limestone ball floating on a powerful gas flame. You viewed it from one spot and saw a vast (virtual) white hot 'Sun' slowly rotating, filling your field of view. (The roaring gas torch added to the drama!)
Woah!
Do you know where I can view this? Is there footage online?
That seems like something I'd pay to see in person.
MOSI the Museum Of Science and Industry has some really cool demos like that, such as a huge indoor tornado simulator and a massive fire vortex, but nothing like what you described.
@@DanteYewToob I have looked for it without success. I think it was an exhibit in a Hultons Boys & Girls Exhibition in Olympia London in the 50s or 60s (I am in my 70s) These were created to encourage interest in Science & Technology (worked for me!)
Interesting - do the red and blue areas when the ball is at the focal point reveal anything about deviations in the mirror's shape? Kind of thinking about the Foucault method of grinding parabolic reflectors for telescopes.
No concave or convex mirror has a perfect arc or evenness, especially a cheap one like this!
yes the focal point, itd be like a microscope, every defect of the less-than-perfect mirror surface magnified.
If you make the mirror as near to perfect as you can then any remaining distortions are due to defects in the ball surface.
I wonder what would happen in a hypothetical perfect mirror. I imagine it would get bigger and bigger until it reaches a infinitely small point before switching ?
@@danilooliveira6580
The image is still a one to one representation. It appears bigger because the entire area of the mirror is reflecting a smaller section of the ball but is not enlarging any one section of the ball!
If you were my science teacher I would have been a scientist 👍
very cool. you should've make more of these short and informative videos (:
Thanks!

Crazy how you can have a single reflection on a concave surface but multiple different objects in the reflection which are different orientations. When the ball is close enough to the inside of the mirror, it is upright while the background is inverted.
That's how every optics class should be taught! Thanks a lot!
If I were the teacher, this would be a demo of how to break a mirror.
Another physics demo is conservation of energy where you hold the ball right next to the mirror and release it and it swings back and will never hit it.
If u mess this one up, u could just use that as your inelastic collision demo, as the mirror steals all the ball's energy when it shatters. Then just rewrite your lectures a bit to work some Newtonian physics into your optics class and ur set.
This demo has all to do with the tangent function. It's part of how the thin lens equation is derived. Similar triangles and all that. The image goes to and fro infinity. Negative infinity too. It's amazing.
VSAUCE once did a video on being inside a spherical mirror but it was quite hard to imagine. Now we have the perfect example
I was hoping to see if the ball were swung side to side or parallel to the mirror if you would achieve the same or different effect.
Thomas M. Dutkiewicz
Amazing demonstration and clear explanation thanks you so much I was studying and dont quite get how it would look like but now I know!
When the image is inverted, it is a Real image. so how can we see it on the mirror?, pls don't say that my eyes are not right... I have searched this on many platforms and asked 1-2 teachers about this and my doubt has not been cleared until now. Thanks
Thank you sir for this. Simple but great explanation!🙏

@@alihaydartunc7249 is everything ok at home fr tho 🌚😅😂
Now use this information once in your life
Excellent explanation with a two color ball. Worth to share.
The intensity of the light to an observer from a source is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the observer to the source. This shows that as the distance from a light source increases, the intensity of light is equal to a value multiplied by 1/d2.
If rays from the center of curvature bounce back to that point, does that mean that an object at that point would then be invisible from any perspective that doesn't view the mirror through that point?
My brain just died by seen the ball moving! It's insane, love it!
Yes, of course. Sure for the optics portion of physics we did convex n concave mirrors and lenses but we may have overlooked this little detail or some of us . Here's something else :- I'm longsighted so I don't need specs for driving but a decade ago I noticed that to see objects clearly in my convex rear vision side mirror I needed to wear the reading spectacles , not immediately but eventually the penny dropped , it's cos I was viewing a virtual image rather than a reflection in the manner we are used to with flat mirrors. The virtual image
being equivalent to two feet from my eyes instead of a hundred metres away say for the actual object. There's a phantom image position that can be traced somewhere behind mirror by following the convergence of light rays .
Another optics phenomenon is with polarising filters . It's more a paradox that occurs when messing with three filters. There may be one or two good videos about it . John Gribbin in his book Schrödinger's Kittens leads into quantum theory from the paradox .
If you own a Movado watch with the museum face then you have one of these at 12 o'clock. A perfectly polished little concave mirror that is amazing under high magnification.
I'm glad our concaved surface of the retina doesn't flip our vision after some focal point. There again- I wonder why not?
It does
Our brain just adapt.
Some dudes used a vr headset and displayed an image of their real time surrounding but upside down, after a while, their brains adapted pretty well. And when they took it off, they had the impression that the world was upside down.
Show this to someone who is "tripping balls" off of some hallucinogen and make their mind exploded.
So why isn't this yourself?
Sir as you moved ball away from the mirror in between pole and Focal point then image is still forming in the mirror and its is still looks real, erected and enlarged but I studied when Object is placed between Pole and focal point imagae is formed beyond the mirror that is virtual and erected.
Please explain Sir how it is possible ?
At first glance of your thumbnail, all I could think of is "Hey, that's the Dr Theopolis prop from Buck Rogers"
Thanks, now I know why things are upside down in my reflector telescope. Good demo.
Theoretically if you put an object exactly in the focal point the image disappear. So why is the image "huge" instead of non existent?
Thanks.
Yes, but you'll never be EXACTLY at the focal point. Just inside the focal point, the image is enormous and upright, and just outside the focal point, the image is enormous and inverted. So for all intents and purposes, the image near the focal point will be huge. Note also that near the focal point, any imperfections in the mirror, or any amount of being off axis, will distort the image.
Understood. Thank you.
It's interesting how the theory works in in practice.
But why do we see a vertual image .... Shouldn't we see a real image that is obtained on a screen...🤔
Sunitha, the image is virtual when the object is inside of the focal point, and real when the object is outside of the focal point. Through the mirror, you can see both real and virtual images, as shown in the video. The difference is that when the object is outside of the focal point, you could also see the image on a screen, that is, you could put a screen in the image plane and see the image, if the object is bright enough.
Amazing, thanks for replying
rather an abrupt ending. I guess that’s all there is to say about that.
mathologer has a video with concave mirrors for sound
This really helped me grasp the concept well. Thank you so much.
Very interesting if you could also show the ray diagram from the side on a board towards end it would be perfect !
I just woke up 4 years later, having been hypnotized.
No one searched for this video. It's RUclips's way of telling you to go to bed.
um... so you see...
I want to see the two times focal length! I also want to see the ball in the center plane moving in and out and not at the end of a string.
We've been hypnotized.
Can Anyone please tell me why the real image is formed on the mirror? It should be on the respective position. For example-If an object is between C and F, then image should be Beyond C, then why actually it's formed inside the mirror? Please clear this doubt of mine.
same Q, have you found the answer?
For real images (concave mirror), all reflecting rays are meeting at the front of the mirror. Then how image of the object is visible at the back/beyond of the mirror.
same Q bro, did you got the answer?
That was good, but what is the function of it. 👍👍
How's the real image formed in the mirror?
Same question
The light rays hitting the mirror bounce off and converge and then diverge. This is a real image because the light actually converges. (>
Can we place a screen at the center of curvature to obtian the real image,but then we will see two images one on the glass and second on the screen how's it possible
Bro I have the same question ? I am so confused.
When the ball is close to the mirror the upper portion of the mirror can only focus on and reflect the upper portion of the ball, when the ball is further away the upper portion of the mirror is focused on and reflecting the lower portion of the ball and vice versa!
i wish he had specified that the mirror was parbolic, not just concave. thats the reason it has those specific properties for the focal and double focal distances
Wow great i never notice this in concave mirror.

A very good demo...
Is the inverted image formed inside the mirror real or virtual. real images are formed when reflected rays from the mirror actually meet and virtual images are formed when reflected light rays appear to meet ..So the can the inverted image be got on the screen kept infront ?
Same doubt
It's like noclipping through a character model in a game. It's so weird how similar it looks...
Can this be used to cook food by solar sun rays which will be focusing on that focal point
Google "Walkie Talkie building London" which was known to MELT cars
i got an exam tomorrow on this... now i am gona rock it XD
It would be amazing if the reflection could be captured at an extremely high frame rat in the thousands. To see the transformation of the reflected image
Would it be possible to know the characteristics of your mirror, or to have the name of the supplier please. I tried with my concave mirror but it doesn't give results as good as you
So, the image is real between the pole and just ahead of the focus and virtually behind the focus? Also, what is infinity in mirrors? Thanks for the videos by the way, very helpful. -Asmi
Sorry, I mean virtual
Asmi, I'm glad the videos are useful to you. The image is virtual when the object is inside of the focal point, and real when the object is outside of the focal point. Through the mirror, you can see both real and virtual images, as shown in the video. The difference is that when the object is outside of the focal point, you could also see the image on a screen, that is, you could put a screen in the image plane and see the image, if the object is bright enough.
