Concept explainers

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.

Question

At what distance away should an object be placed from a convex spherical mirror that has a focal length of -25.3 cm such that the lateral magnification of the image is 555? Express the numeric answer in cm.
