Concept explainers
The image position and the image height.
Answer to Problem 80A
The image position is 23 cm in the front of the mirror and its height is 1.84 cm.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The radius of curvature of the concave mirror,
The height of the object,
The object distance from the mirror,
Formula used:
The relation between the radius of curvature of mirror
Mirror equation,
Where,
And,
Magnification,
Where,
Calculation:
The focal length of the concave mirror will be,
Using the given values in Mirror equation, the image distance will be,
Then, the image height will be,
Negative sign denotes inverted image.
Conclusion:
Therefore, the image is formed at a distance of
