Question

Can you give me examples of everyday objects we use at home or that can be found in a city (4 different objects) and as many symmetry elements as possible? i.e a building that has 4 windows can have a C2 sigma H etc etc

Thanks! (:

Answer 1

I have given 4 examples of objects that we see in our daily life with their symmetry elements. Please note that the diagrams of the objects are hand drawn and may not be fully accurate. The objects include a 3- stand chair, eyeglass, scissor, water drum closed at both ends.

1) 3-stand chair.

2) Scissors-

3) Eyeglasses-

4) Water drum closed at both ends -

The symmetry elements of all four objects are-
