Applications Of Reflection Of Light

When a light ray (termed as the incident ray) hits a surface and bounces back (forms a reflected ray), the process of reflection of light has taken place.

Sign Convention for Mirrors

A mirror is made of glass that is coated with a metal amalgam on one side due to which the light ray incident on the surface undergoes reflection and not refraction.

Question

6 - An object 2.5 cm long is 15 cm away from
a convex lens, so an image is formed at a
distance of 45 cm
(a) The focal length of the lens.
b- The length of the image.
