An object of height 2.50cm is placed 20.0cm from a converging mirror of focal length 10.0cm. What are the height and the magnification of the image formed?

Respuesta :

First find the distance it is reflected:

D = 20.0 x 10.0 /(20-10) = 200/10 = 20cm away.

Now calculate the magnification: -20/ 20 = -1

Now calculate the height:

-1 x 2.50 = -2.50

The negative sign means the image is inverted.

The mirrored image would be inverted, 2.50 cm tall and 20 cm in front of the mirror.
