5) 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?

A spherical mirror is polished on both sides. When the concave side is used as a mirror, the magnification is +2.6. What is the magnification when the convex side is used as a mirror, the object remaining the same distance from the mirror? If the object is inverted, then enter a negative number. Otherwise, enter a positive number. Number i Units >

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.
The smallest object we can resolve with our eye is limited by the size of the light receptor cells in the retina. In order for us to distinguish any detail in an object, its image cannot be any smaller than a single retinal cell. Although the size depends on the type of cell (rod or cone), a diameter of a few microns (μm) is typical near the center of the eye. We shall model the eye as a sphere 2.50 cm in diameter with a single thin lens at the front and the retina at the rear, with light receptor cells 5.0 μm in diameter. (a) What is the smallest object you can resolve at a near point of 25 cm? (b) What angle is subtended by this object at the eye? Express your answer in units of minutes (1°=60 min), and compare it with the typical experimental value of about 1.0 min. (Note: There are other limitations, such as the bending of light as it passes through the pupil, but we shall ignore them here.)
