Question 1
1.
Why can't light transmit through a regular mirror?
Because the silver layer and paint make the mirror opaque.
Because the glass is too thick for light to pass through.
Because the mirror is always placed in dark areas.
Because the light is absorbed by the glass.
Question 2
2.
What is unique about the silver layer in a one-way mirror compared to a regular mirror?
It is placed on the front side of the glass.
It is a very thin layer, making some parts of the glass transparent.
It covers the entire surface of the glass without gaps.
It is made of aluminum instead of silver.
Question 3
3.
What does 'half-silvered' mean in the context of one-way mirrors?
Half of the mirror's surface is covered with silver, and half is left as plain glass.
The silver layer is thin, creating a blend of transparent and reflective surfaces.
The silver is only applied to the edges of the mirror.
The silver is mixed with another metal to reduce its reflectivity.
Question 4
4.
Which of these is a diagram of silvering on a one-way mirror?
Question 5
5.
What happens to light rays that shine on a regular mirror?
They are absorbed by the mirror.
They are fully reflected off the mirror.
They pass through the mirror like glass.
They are partially transmitted through the mirror.
Question 6
6.
What role do the impurities and dust on the surface of glass play in how we see glass?
They amplify the light passing through, making the glass shine.
They have no effect on how we see the glass.
They reflect light to our eyes, allowing us to see the glass.
They absorb light, making the glass visible.
Question 7
7.
What would likely happen if light rays shined on a one-way mirror, compared to a regular mirror and a pane of glass?
No light rays pass through any of the materials.
All light rays pass through the one-way mirror and the glass.
All materials reflect and transmit light equally.
Some light rays pass through the one-way mirror, while all reflect off the regular mirror.
Question 8
8.
Which of these is a diagram of silvering on a regular mirror?
Question 9
9.
What is the primary reason a regular piece of glass does not transmit all the light that shines on it?
There are impurities and dust on its surface.
It absorbs all the light.
Glass naturally reflects all light.
It's too thick.
Question 10
10.
What potential outcomes could occur if the silver layer on a one-way mirror is applied too thickly?
It would make the mirror less durable and prone to cracking.
The mirror could lose its one-way property and simply reflect light like a regular mirror, preventing visibility from the other side.
The mirror would become fully transparent, losing all reflective qualitities.
A thicker silver layer would not affect the mirror's properties or functionality.
