Concept explainers
In Manet’s A Bar at the Folies-Bergere (see Figure Q18.7) the reflection of the barmaid is visible in the mirror behind her. Is this the reflection you would expect if the mirror’s surface is parallel to the bar? Where is the man seen facing her in the mirror actually standing?

- If a cylinder of solid glass or clear plastic is placed above the words LEAD OXIDE and viewed from the side, as shown in Figure CQ23.10, the word LEAD appears inverted, but the word OXIDE does not. Explain? Figure CQ23.10arrow_forwardThe object in Figure P23.52 is mid-way between the lens and the mirror, which are separated by a distance d = 25.0 cm. The magnitude of the mirrors radius of curvature is 20.0 cm, and the lens has a focal length of 16.7 cm. (a) Considering only the light that leaves the object and travels first toward the mirror, locate the final image formed by this system. (b) Is the image real or virtual? (c) Is it upright or inverted? (d) What is the overall magnification of the image? Figure P23.52arrow_forwardAn object represented by a gray arrow, is placed in front of a plane mirror. Which of the diagram in Figure CQ23.15 best describes the image, represented by the pink arrow? Figure CQ23.15arrow_forward

(c) Is it upright or inverted? (d) What is the overall magnification of the image? Figure P23.52arrow_forwardCurved glassair interfaces like those observed in an empty shot glass make it possible for total internal reflection to occur at the shot glasss internal surface. Consider a glass cylinder (n = 1.54) with an outer radius of 2.50 cm and an inner radius of 2.00 cm as shown in Figure P38.105. Find the minimum angle i such that there is total internal reflection at the inner surface of the shot glass. FIGURE P38.105 Problems 105 and 106.arrow_forwardA 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?arrow_forward
