Question

In a completely dark room, if you hold up a mirror in front of you, will you see a reflection of yourself in the mirror?

Answer 1

1. We can see an object when light rays fall on our eyes after reflection from the object.
2. In a dark room there is no light and in absence of light, there will be no reflection.
3. So in the case of a mirror in a dark room, we can't see our reflection in the mirror.

Hence, we cant see our image in the mirror without any light source.
