At time t = 0, a ball is dropped (starting from rest) from a height of 3 m. The ball fallsfreely (i.e. without air resistance) toward a concave spherical mirror that has been laidhorizontally on the ground directly below the ball. The mirror has a radius of curvatureof magnitude 1 m. a) Calculate the position of the ball's image at t = 0. b) Calculatethe position of the ball's image at an arbitrary time t. In other words, calculate the imageposition as a function of time. c) Calculate the position of the ball's image at t = 0.5 s.d) As the ball falls downward, its image moves upward. At what time do the ball and itsimage first coincide?

Suppose you have a concave mirror as shown in the image below. If h = 0.7m is the height of an object (really the displacement of the top of the object from the axis) and h' = 4.34m is the height of the image, what is the magnitude of the transverse magnification (in units of meters)? Image с Object Note: Do not explicitly include units in your answer (it is understood the unit is meter). Enter only a number. If you do enter a unit, your answer will be counted wrong.
