What feature allows the music teacher to see the music student?
What feature allows the music teacher to see the music student?
- The music student is wearing reflective clothing.
- Because there is a regular window between them.
- There might be a one-way mirror or transparent surface allowing visibility from one side. (correct)
- Because the lighting in the room makes the student visible.
Why is the music student unable to see the teacher?
Why is the music student unable to see the teacher?
- The room is too dark for the student to see anything else.
- The teacher is hiding from the student's view.
- The surface they are looking through might be reflective on the student's side. (correct)
- The teacher is invisible.

Study Notes
Visibility Between Teacher and Student
- A one-way mirror or transparent surface enables the teacher to see the student while remaining unseen by the student.
- Regular windows would allow both parties visibility, which does not align with the scenario described.
- Lighting conditions do not contribute significantly to one-sided visibility; thus, they are not a primary factor.
- Reflective clothing does not play a role in the visibility dynamics between the teacher and student.
Student's Perspective
- The student can see himself due to the reflective nature of the surface they are observing.
- There is no evidence supporting the notion that the teacher is invisible to the student.
- Insufficient room lighting does not explain the singular visibility of the student.
- Claims about the teacher hiding lack a basis in the described setup.
Scale Model Investigation
- The scale model must accurately incorporate the properties of a one-way mirror to study the visibility dynamics.
- Reflection and refraction characteristics should be included to better understand how sight is obstructed or facilitated.
- Ensuring that the model demonstrates how each side of the mirror operates differently is crucial for investigation.
