A thin, diverging lens having a focal length of magnitude 45.0 cm has the same principal axis as a concave mirror with a radius of 60.0 cm. The center of the mirror is 20.0 cm from the lens, with the lens in front of the mirror. An object is placed 23.0 cm in front of the lens. 1)Where is the final image due to the lens–mirror combination? Enter the image distance with respect to the mirror. Follow the sign convention. (Express your answer to three significant figures.) 4)Suppose now that the concave mirror is replaced by a convex mirror of the same radius. Where is the final image due to the lens–mirror combination? Enter the image distance with respect to the mirror. Follow the sign convention. (Express your answer to three significant figures.)
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.
A thin, diverging lens having a focal length of magnitude 45.0 cm has the same principal axis as a concave mirror with a radius of 60.0 cm. The center of the mirror is 20.0 cm from the lens, with the lens in front of the mirror. An object is placed 23.0 cm in front of the lens.
