Question

Assume that a certain concave spherical mirror has a focallength of 10.0cm. Locate the image and find the magnification foran object distance of 25.0cm. Determine whether the image is realor virtual, inverted or upright, and larger or smaller Please work out fully so i can understand :) thank you Assume that a certain concave spherical mirror has a focallength of 10.0cm.

Explanation / Answer

1/p + 1/q = 1/f p- object distance q- image distance f- focal point 1/25 + 1/q= 1/10 q=16.7cm since this is a positive number, the image is real magnification= -q/p -16.7/25= -.668 the image is smaller and the negative signlets us know it is inverted
