Why does your reflection appear upside down when you see it in a spoon?

Answer 1

Answer

Light rays travel in a straight line until they hit something. A light ray comes straight back only when it hits an object dead on. If the surface of the object is slanted relative to the light, it will cause the light to be reflected at an angle. So, a spoon's surface is curved, both from top to bottom and side to side. And all the light that enters our eye does so in the same direction (we'll call it the horizontal direction). Light from our toes hits the top of the spoon and, because of it's 'downward' slant, gets redirected horizontally. And only light from our head gets reflected horizontally from the bottom of the spoon. Since what we see is WHERE the light came from, we see our toes above our head!

Answer 2

Because the spoon is concave and the light rays that hit the spoon gather and meet at a point that refelects back your image as an upside down image.

Answer 3

Before answering your questions, It depends if you look from the inner of the spoon or the outside of the spoon.

In the case when you have the outside you have an image which has the same direction but is smaller.
if you look in the inner of the spoon it is smaller when the object you are father than half the radius of the spoon

Answer 4

Same reason as when you look at your image in 2 mirrors held at 90 degree angle to each other, your image is reversed. Also looking through a single magnifying lens, everything is upside down, and right to left.

Answer 5

Its because of the fact the interior the spoon is concave there's a evaluate front of the spoon the place the image will substitute into correct element up. yet this factor to going to be very on the factor of the spoon that it will no longer be hassle-free to do.
