The mirror above has a radius of curvature
cm. A candle is
placed at
cm as shown. Find:
- The focal length of the mirror (draw the focal point in on the
diagram above).
- The location
of the image in centimeters.
- The magnification of the image.
- State whether the image is real or virtual, erect or inverted.
- Draw the ray diagram for this arrangement using the three
``named'' rays used for both lenses and mirrors as shown in class.
Obviously it should validate your answers to the above.
