- 1) Suppose a concave spherical mirror has a focal length of 4.0 cm. Find the image location and magnification both graphically (with ray diagrams) and analytically (using equations) for the following cases. In each case state whether the image is real/virtual and upright/inverted. (a) First case: An object of height 4.0 cm located a distance 12.0 cm from the mirror. (b) Second case: An object of height 2.0 cm located a distance 2.0 cm from the mirror. (c) Third case: Repeat 1(a) for a convex mirror using the same focal length.arrow_forwardDraw the ray diagram of this problem An object is placed 50 cm in front of a concave mirror of 60 cm radius. Determine the (a) focal length, (b) image distance, (c) linear magnification, (d) object size if the image produced was 3 cm.

- An object is placed (3.80x10^1) cm in front of a spherical mirror.-- An "upright" image is formed that is twice as tall as the object. You must do BOTH of the following. FIRST determine the radius of curvature of the mirror in cm to 3 significant digits Be certain to include the appropriate "sign" for the focal length.arrow_forwardformed 6.00 cm behind the glass shell. Where is the coin located? Determine b) A coin is placed next to the convex side of a thin spherical glass shell having a radius of curvature of 18.0 cm. An image of the 1.5mm tall coin in the size, orientation, and nature (real or virtual) of the image.arrow_forward5) An object is placed in front of a circular mirror with a radius of curvature of 8 cm. A virtual image is formed 10 cm from the mirror. If the object and mirror are kept at the same location, but the radius of curvature is changed such that after is it is changed, the image formed is the opposite orientation as the image of the first radius and the magnification is 2.6 times smaller (the second image is 2.6 times smaller than the first image), what does the radius of curvature need to be in cm?arrow_forward
