Concave Mirror Equation at Leonard Hazzard blog

Concave Mirror Equation. As in the case of lenses, the cartesian sign convention is used here, and that is the origin of the negative sign. For concave mirrors, when the object is outside c, the image will be between c and f and the image will be inverted and diminished (smaller than the object). Learn how to use the mirror equation to find the image distance and focal length of a spherical mirror. A concave mirror is a curved mirror that forms a part of a sphere and designed in such a way that rays of light falling on its shiny surface converge upon reflection. Although it was derived for a concave mirror, it also holds for convex mirrors (proving this is left as an exercise). Use fermat’s principle to determine the shape (equation) of a concave mirror in air that produces a perfect image of a distant (at infinity) point. The sign conventions for the given quantities in the mirror equation and magnification equations are as follows: See the sign conventions, the derivation, and a solved problem for a convex. F is + if the mirror is a concave. The mirror equation is (1/d o)+(1/d i)=1/f. The magnification equation is m=−d i /d o.
