Winter 1996 HOMEWORK 4 with Solutions 1. Find the image of the object for the single concave mirror system shown in Fig.1 (see next pages for worksheets) by: (a) measuring the radius R and calculating the focal length for the concave mirror, (b) drawing the focal point into the diagram, and (c) constructing the image of the object graphically with three rays. R R = 10 cm, and f = 2 Three rays: 1 2 3 = 5 cm Incident Rays Parallel to the optical axis Through the center of the mirror (C) Through the focal point of the mirror (F) C F Object Reflected Rays Through the focal point of the mirror (F) Through the center of the mirror (C) Parallel to the optical axis Image 2. Regarding your own face as a real object, describe the image of your face which you see standing 4 feet from the center (and looking directly toward) a polished and well-reflecting brass ball 2 feet in diameter hanging in front of a pawn shop. Determine the image of your face both graphically and by calculation. By Calculation: Brass ball is equivalent to a CONVEX MIRROR ( f < 0) . Diameter = 2 · R = 2 ft R = 1 ft and f = – 0.5 ft You are standing at 4 ft from the center of the brass ball, but the distance s o of object from the mirror is measured from the vortex of mirror. so = (4 – 1) = + 3 ft 1 1 1 From the mirror equation, f = s + s o i 1 1 si = { –0.5 – 3 } -1 = –0.43 ft Since si < 0, the image is virtural. yi si M = y = – s = + 0.14. o o Since M > 0 and |M| < 1, the image is up-right and minified.
