- (a) A concave spherical mirror forms an inverted image different in size from the object by a factor a 1. The distance between object and image is d. Find the focal length of the mirror. (b) What If? Suppose the mirror is convex, an upright image is formed, and a 1.

Determine (a) the mirrors focal length, (b) the image distance, and (c) the magnification. (d) Is the image real or virtual? (e) Is the image upright or inverted?arrow_forwardConsider the lensmirror arrangement shown in Figure P35.55. There are two final image positions to the left of the lens of focal length fL. One image position is due to light traveling from the object to the left and passing through the lens. The other image position is due to light traveling to the right from the object, reflecting from the mirror of focal length fM and then passing through the lens. For a given object position p between the lens and the mirror and measured with respect to the lens, there are two separation distances d between the lens and mirror that will cause the two images described above to be at the same location. Find both positions.arrow_forward
- A small convex mirror and a large concave mirror are separated by 1.00 m, and an object is placed 1.40 m to the left of the concave mirror (Fig. P37.69). The concave mirror forms an image of this object at distance di = 25.0 cm. This image is then reflected in the convex mirror, which forms an image a distance of 8.00 cm behind the convex mirror. What is the focal length of the small convex mirror? FIGURE P37.69arrow_forward(i) An object is plated at a position p f from a concave mirror as shown in Figure CQ39.12a, where f is the focal length of the mirror. In a finite time interval, the object is moved to the right to a position at the focal point F of the mirror. Show that the image of the object moves at a speed greater than the speed of light. (ii) A laser pointer is suspended in a horizontal plane and set into rapid rotation as shown in Figure CQ39 12b. Show that the spot of light it produces on a distant screen can move across the screen at a speed greater than the speed of light. (If you carry out this experiment. make sure the direct laser light cannot enter a person's eyes.) (iii) Argue that the experiments in parts (i) and (ii) do not invalidate the principle that no material, no energy, and no information can move faster than light moves in a vacuum.
