This interactive simulation models vertical mirror reflection, allowing learners to explore how light reflects off vertical mirrors using point objects, customisable shapes (Wink, Bear, Large Object), and user-written text. Students can manipulate object positions and observe real-time reflection patterns to understand the law of reflection and mirror geometry principles.
Learning objectives: Understand how vertical mirrors reflect light and objects according to the law of reflection | Explore the relationship between object position and image formation in plane mirrors | Apply reflection principles by predicting and verifying image positions for various objects
