Concept explainers
A dentist uses a curved mirror to view the back side of teeth on the upper jaw. Suppose she wants an erect image with a magnification of 2.0 when the mirror is 1.2 cm from a tooth. (Treat this problem as though the object and image lie along a straight line.) Use ray tracing to decide whether a concave or convex mirror is needed, and to estimate its focal length.
