In the movies, you sometimes see an actor looking in a mirror and you can see his face in the mirror. It can be said with certainty that during the filming of such a scene, the actor sees in the mirror:
(a) his face
(b) your face
(c) the director’s face
(d) the movie camera
(e)impossible to determine
The place you get your hair cut has two nearly parallel mirrors 7.0 mm apart. As you sit in the chair, your head is 2.0 mm from the nearer mirror. Looking toward this mirror, you first see your face and then, farther away, the back of your head. How far away does the back of your head appear to be? Neglect the thickness of your head.
(a) Does your bathroom mirror show you older or younger than your actual age? (b) Compute an orderof- magnitude estimate for the age difference, based on data you specify.
