A small convex mirror and a large concave mirror are separated by 1 m, and an object is placed 1.4 m to the left of the concave mirror. The concave mirror forms an image of this object 25 cm in front of it. This image is then reflected in the convex mirror, which forms an image at a distance 8 cm behind it. What is the focal length of the convex mirror?
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.
