Flat Mirrors
The image formed by an object placed in front of a flat mirror is as far behind the mirror as the object is in front of the mirror; Lateral magnification
p=lql h=h’
M=h’/h
Flat Mirrors
- The image is as far behind the mirror as the object is
in front. - The image is UNMAGNIFIED, VIRTUAL, and UPRIGHT.
- The image has an apparent LEFT-RIGHT REVERSAL.
Flat Mirrors
Daytime: Brighter reflection (mirror tilted in)
Nighttime: Darker reflection (mirror tilted out)
Spherical Mirrors (Concave)
Produces real image
All SMALL reflected angles go to the same image point
Spherical Aberration
Rays that make a LARGE angle with the principal axis diverge(rays intersecting at different points on principle axis), producing
a blurred image
Spherical Mirrors (Concave)
Real image at two reflected rays intersect
M=h’/h=-q/p
Mirror Equation
1/p+1/q=2/R=1/f
Convex Mirror
The image formed by the object is virtual, upright, and behind the mirror
Equations for concave mirrors still apply, as long as we use the correct signs
Note
C is is twice as large as F
C and F are behind convex mirrors
Converging Lenses
Biconvex
Concave-Convex
Plano-Convex
Diverging Lenses (Dive In Cave)
Biconcave
Concave-Convex
Plano-Concave
Thin lenses
Converging: parallel->towards same F point
Diverging: parallel->away from F point
