Plane Mirror http: //physics. bu. edu/~duffy/py 106/Reflection. html

Type of Image • Virtual • Equal in Size • Erect (Upright)

Spherical (Curved) Mirrors • Concave • Convex

Concave Mirror

Converging Mirror http: //buphy. bu. edu/~duffy/PY 106/22 a. GIF

Summary for Concave Mirror When object is: • Beyond C Image is: • Between C and F • At C • Between C and F • Beyond C • At F • No image • Between F and mirror • Virtual image

Mirror Equation 1 = 1 + 1 f do di

Magnification M= hi = -di ho do

Sign Convention do + object is in front of the mirror di + real image, in front of the mirror di - virtual image, behind the mirror hi + erect image hi - inverted image f + converging (concave) mirrors f - diverging (convex) mirrors

Convex Mirror (Diverging)

Summary for Convex Mirror Always: • Virtual, reduced, upright image
