Why Do Mirrors Reverse Feynmans Mind Blowing Answer The Feynman

Описание: Thinking Physics: The Feynman Method
Do you think the mirror reverses left and right? You aren't seeing what you think you are. The answer is: The mirror never reversed left and right. It doesn't touch the horizontal axis at all. The reversal is happening entirely inside your head.

In this video, inspired by Richard Feynman's legendary explanation, we explore the "Mirror Paradox." It is a puzzle that seems obvious until you actually stop to think about it: If a mirror is perfectly symmetrical up-and-down and left-and-right, why does it only flip the horizontal axis? Why doesn't your reflection stand on its head? The search for the answer takes us from the bathroom sink to the fundamental structure of the universe.

How is that possible? Imagine you have a flexible rubber mask of your face. If you push that mask straight into the glass, the nose is squashed flat, but the ears stay back. The mirror doesn't swap sides; it squashes depth. It turns space inside out along the Z-axis, effectively pulling the universe through itself like a glove turned inside out.

What does that mean for your reality? It means that "Left" and "Right" are not absolute truths—they are biological interpretations caused by how humans move. But be warned: we will also discover the one specific case where nature does care about left and right—a flaw in the symmetry of the universe that tells us whether we should shake hands with a Martian or run for our lives.
