. If the mirror described in the previous problem is used to form an image of the same object now located 16 cm in front of the mirror, what would the new image position be? Assuming that the magnification equations developed for lenses also apply to mirrors, describe the image (size and orientation) thus formed.
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.
What is the focal length of a makeup mirror that produces a magnification of 1.50 when a person’s face is 12.0 cm away? Explicitly show how you follow the steps in the Problem-Solving Strategy: Spherical Mirrors.
Calculate the focal length of a mirror formed by the shiny back of a spoon that has a 3.00 cm radius of curvature.
The image produced by the microscope in Figure 2.38 cannot be projected. Could extra lenses or mirrors project it? Explain.
A water fountain is at the center of a circular pool as shown in Figure P1.59. A student walks around the pool and measures its circumference C. Next, he stands at the edge of the pool and uses a protractor to measure the angle of elevation of his sightline to the top of the water jet. How high is the fountain?
