B. What is the radius of the curvature of the mirror?
A. What is the magnification of the image?
B. What is the radius of the curvature of the mirror?
Answers
A. Mag. = 6.43/3.28 = 1.96
B. R = 2 f
Get the focal length f from the equation
1/do + 1/di = 1/f
do = object distance = 10.5 cm
di = image distance = 20.6 cm
B. R = 2 f
Get the focal length f from the equation
1/do + 1/di = 1/f
do = object distance = 10.5 cm
di = image distance = 20.6 cm
How did you get 20.6?
