- The mirror equation relates the object distance, d0, the image distance, di, and the focal length, f, of a mirror as1 / d0 + 1 / di = 1 / fWhile in other topics, distance and length are strictly non-negative, in optics we introduce the following sign conventions: Object distance is positive for a real object and negative for a virtual object. Image distance is positive for a real image and negative for a virtual image. Focal length is positive for a converging mirror and negative for a diverging mirror (a) Select the best choice to complete this statement.
