Question
In a physics lab, Anna Litical and Noah Formula position a small night light bulb at several locations along the principal axis of a concave mirror. Using a note card, they locate the image of the light bulb. The mirror has a focal length of 32.0 cm. What image distances would you expect Anna and Noah to observe when the object is located at distances of …
a. … 85.3 cm from the mirror?
b. … 64.0 cm from the mirror?
c. … 48.1 cm from the mirror?
