Re: Property of Light
It was given under 'Reflection of Light'.
There is a torch (source of light) in left extreme.
A comb lies on its back. Its shadow (striped black lines) is casted behind.
Next comes a mirror in the path of shadow. It is shown as such the mirror reflects the remaining part of shadow so that the reflected shadow forms a criss-cross pattern.
Is there any possibility that this kind of behaviour can be observed practically?
In alternate thinking, what if the mirror is trying to reflect the light but not shadow? Even then it should negate the earlier formed shadow or just cause to form a shadow on the other side of comb (towards torch).
