An object is placed 13 cm in front of a concave mirror whose focal length is 19 cm. The object is 2.5 cm tall. Determine (a) the location of the image, taking a real image as a positive value and a virtual image as a negative value. (b) Determine the height of the image, where an upright image will have a positive height and an inverted image will have a negative height.
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.
