Chapter 30 Mirrors & Lenses
Plain Mirrors • Virtual Image • Same size as object • Equal distance from mirror • “Flipped” Right to Left
Concave Mirror • Image depends on location of object • Object farther than F • Real image • Upside down and reversed R to L
Concave Mirror • Object closer than F • virtual image • right side up • magnified
Convex Mirrors • Object located anywhere in front of mirror • Creates a virtual mage • behind mirror • right side up • smaller
Mirror Formula • f = focal length • do = object distance • di = image distance • 1/f = 1/do + 1/di • real image has positive image distance • virtual image has negative image distance
Convex Lenses • Image depends on location of object • Real image occurs when object is “far” away • upside down • bigger or smaller
Convex Lenses (cont.) • Object closer than focal length • Virtual image • right side up • larger • magnifying glass • corrective lens for far-sighted
Concave Lens • Virtual Image • right side up • smaller • corrective lens for myopia
