As shown in Fig. 36-8, a light ray IO is incident on a small plane mirror. The mirror reflects this ray back onto a straight ruler SC which is 1 m away from and parallel to the undeflected mirror MM. When the mirror turns through an angle of 8.0° and assumes the position M'M', across what distance on the scale will the spot of light move? (This device, called an optical lever, is useful in measuring small deflections.)8.0 M' M M M' Incident ray 1.0 m 8.0 8.0 Reflected ray Fig. 36-8 S I R
