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

The distance between an object and its
image formed by a convex mirror is d = 6
cm. The lateral magnification is M = +0.5.
What is the focal length, f, of the mirror?
O +4 cm
-10 cm
O +10 cm
O -4 cm
O -14 cm
