Textbook Question
Chapter 35, Problem 8P
Why is the following situation impossible? At a blind corner in an outdoor shopping mall, a convex mirror is mounted so pedestrians can see around the corner before arriving there and bumping into someone traveling in the perpendicular direction. The installers of the mirror failed to take into account the position of the Sun, and the mirror focuses the Sun’s rays on a nearby bush and sets it on fire.
