The radius of curvature of concave mirror.
Answer to Problem 19P
Solution:
Radius of curvature of concave mirror
Explanation of Solution
Given Info:
The nature of the image flips at a distance 0.50 m.
Let the focal length and radius of curvature of concave mirror be ‘f’ and ‘R’ respectively.
Formula Used:
Radius of curvature of concave mirror R = 2f
Here, all alphabets are in their usual meanings.
Calculation:
Since the nature of the image flips at a distance 0.50 m. It means this will be focal point of concave mirror because before to this point image is always be inverted and after to this point, image will be upright.
Hence, this distance from the concave mirror will be focal length of concave mirror.
Radius of curvature of concave mirror R = 2f
