Journal Entry 10/19

The image is really there but there is no other orange in the mirror or behind the mirror. I wouldn't agree with him because the image of the orange is really there. I would try to convince him that it was really there because no matter what you do it will always be there. The image cannot be an illusion because it is always there. Linda's idea of the image being on the surface is not reality because when we performed the experiment we showed that the image is behind the mirror. It is in the exact same spot as in front of the mirror only opposite and in the back of the mirror. I would show her that when rulers are pointed at the image and are connected, where they intersect is where the image is. It is not on the surface of the mirror but behind it.
