A flat mirror oriented perpendicular to the \(y\) axis of a Cartesian coordinate system extends along the \(x\) axis from \(x=0\) to \(x=4.0 \mathrm{~m}\). An object is located in the \(x y\) plane at the point \((1.0 \mathrm{~m}, 2. 0 \mathrm{~m})\). With your eye in the \(x y\) plane in the range \(y<0\) and \(x\) equal to any value, you cannot see the image of this object in the mirror. For what range of \(x\) and \(y\) in the \(x y\) plane can you see the image in the mirror?
