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.

For each assume the focal length is 10 cm and height is 5cm. Determine the distance and calculate image distance,image height and magnification

Problem 5: A negative lens L1 is shown. It has a focal length of 100 mm. An object 40 mm in height is placed 170 mm from the lens as shown. Using ray trace rules, dray the three rays to locate the object to scale on the diagram. Locate the image and estimate q, Mr and hima graphically. Next calculate q, MT and himg: Compare to your diagram. Explain any discrepancies. (Drawing to scale, 1 block = 10 mm). 1 Block = 10 mm

An object is 24 cm in front of a diverging lens that has a focal length of -14 cm. How far in front of the lens should the object be placed so that the size of its image is reduced by a factor of 2.2? Number i eTextbook and Media Units cm
