The image position and its height.
Answer to Problem 65A
Image position is 70.52 cm and image height is 9.4 cm.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The radius of curvature of the concave mirror,
The height of the object,
The object distance from the mirror,
Formula used:
The relation between the radius of curvature of mirror
Mirror equation,
Where,
And,
Magnification,
Where,
Calculation:
Then, the focal length of the concave mirror will be,
Using the given values in Mirror equation, the image distance will be,
Then, the image height will be,
Negative sign denotes inverted image.
Conclusion:
Therefore, the image position is
