Use the spherical mirror equation to find the image distance

Reference no: EM13497273

You will begin with a relatively standard calculation. Consider a concave spherical mirror with a radius of curvature equal to 60.0 centimeters. An object 6.00 centimeters tall is placed along the axis of the mirror, 45.0 centimeters from the mirror. You are to find the location and height of the image.

What is the focal length of this mirror?

Now use the spherical mirror equation to find the image distance .

Find the magnification m, using s and s^1 .

Finally, use the magnification to find the height of the image y^1.
