Question
23.1 Two plane mirrors stand facing each other, 2.84 m apart, and a woman stands between them. The woman faces one of the mirrors from a distance of 1.15 m and holds her left arm out to the side of her body with the palm of her left hand facing the closer mirror.
What is the apparent position of the closest image of her left hand, measured perpendicularly from the surface of the mirror in front of her?
m behind the nearer mirror
What is the position of the next image?

- F1 F2 Figure above shows a thin converging lens in front of a concave spherical mirror with the radius of curvature R = 5.0cm. Assume that the lens focal points F1 and F2 are 5.0 cm from the center of the lens. The lens and mirror are 18.0 cm apart, and an object is placed 7.0cm to the left of the lens. How far from the lens is the position of the final image? State your answer in cm to the nearest 0.1 cm.arrow_forwardSuppose you have a concave mirror as shown in the image below. If h = 1.84m is the height of an object (really the displacement of the top of the object from the axis) and h' = 4.21m is the height of the image, what is the magnitude of the transverse magnification (in units of meters)?

- In the figure below, a diverging lens and concave spherical mirror are positioned along an optical axis, with an object half way between the two. The distance between the lens and mirror is d = 23.6 cm. The magnitude of the mirror's radius of curvature is 20.1 cm, and the lens has a focal length of flens = -19.0 cm.
