Concept explainers

Applications Of Reflection Of Light

When a light ray (termed as the incident ray) hits a surface and bounces back (forms a reflected ray), the process of reflection of light has taken place.

Sign Convention for Mirrors

A mirror is made of glass that is coated with a metal amalgam on one side due to which the light ray incident on the surface undergoes reflection and not refraction.

Question

I need the answer as soon as possible

An object is placed in front of a concave mirror and an image with a
magnification M = +2.5 is formed behind the mirror. If the radius of curvature of
the mirror is 3 m, then the object distance is:
O p- 0.30 m
O p= 0.25 m
Op-0.90 m
O P= 0.75 m
p = 0.50 m

Suppose a man stands in front of a mirror as shown in Figure 25.50. His eyes are 1.65 m above the floor, and the top of his head is 0.13 m higher. Find the height above the floor of the top and bottom of the smallest mirror in which he can see both the top of his head and his feet. How is this distance related to the man’s height? Figure 25.50 A full-length mirror is one in which you can see all of yourself. It need not be as big as you, and its size is independent of your distance from it.
A converging lens has a focal length of 10.0 cm. Locate the object if a real image is located at a distance from the lens of (a) 20.0 cm and (b) 50.0 cm. What If? Redo the calculations if the images are virtual and located at a distance from the lens of (c) 20.0 cm and (d) 50.0 cm.
A lamp of height S cm is placed 40 cm in front of a converging lens of focal length 20 cm. There is a plane mirror 15 cm behind the lens. Where would you find the image when you look in the mirror?
For a normal, relaxed eye, a magnifying glass produces an angular magnification of 4.0. What is the largest magnification possible with this magnifying glass?
Use the law of reflection to prove that the focal length of a mirror is half its radius of curvature. That is, prove that f = R/2. Note this is true for a spherical mirror only if its diameter is small compared with its radius of curvature.
Au object of height 3.0 cm is placed at 25 cm in front of a diverging lens of focal length 20 cm. Behind the diverging lens, there is a converging lens of focal length 20 cm. The distance between the lenses is 5.0 cm. Fluid the location and size of the final image.
A 1.80-m-tall person stands 9.00 m in front of a large, concave spherical mirror having a radius of curvature of 3.00 m. Determine (a) the mirrors focal length, (b) the image distance, and (c) the magnification. (d) Is the image real or virtual? (e) Is the image upright or inverted?
The lens and the mirror in figure P23.51 are separated by 1.00 m and have focal lengths of +80.0 cm and 50.0 cm., respectively. If an object is placed 1.00 m to the left of the lens, where will the final image be located? Stale whether the image is upright or inverted, and determine the overall magnification. Figure P23.51
A convex mirror with a radius of curvature of 25.0 cm is used to form an image of an arrow that is 10.0 cm away from the mirror. If the arrow is 2.00 cm tall and inverted (pointing below the optical axis), what is the height of the arrows image?
Suppose you want to use a converging lens to project the image of two trees onto a screen. One tree is a distance x from the lens; the other is at 2%, as in Figure CQ23.7. You adjust the screen so that the near tree is in focus. If you now want the far tree to be in focus, do you move the screen toward or away from the lens? Figure CQ23.7
Figure P38.43 shows a concave meniscus lens. If |r1| = 8.50 cm and |r2| = 6.50 cm, find the focal length and determine whether the lens is converging or diverging. The lens is made of glass with index of refraction n = 1.55. CHECK and THINK: How do your answers change if the object is placed on the right side of the lens? FIGURE P38.43
