- 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?arrow_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.
