Geometric Optics
A concave mirror is used to form an image of an object placed at a very large distance (essentially at infinity). What type of image is formed?
An object is placed 40 cm in front of a concave mirror that has a focal length of 30 cm. What is the image distance?
An object is placed 25 cm in front of a concave mirror with a focal length of 10 cm. Determine the image characteristics.
What type of image is always formed by a convex mirror?
An object is placed 20 cm in front of a convex mirror with a focal length of -10 cm. Find the image distance and magnification.
An object is placed 25 cm in front of a plane mirror. How far behind the mirror does the image appear to be?
A person walks towards a plane mirror at a speed of 2 m/s. What is the speed of the person relative to their image?

An object is 5 cm tall, and its image formed by a mirror is 2.5 cm tall. What is the magnification, and is the image upright or inverted if the magnification is positive?
The magnification of an image formed by a mirror is 2. The object is placed 10 cm from the mirror. What is the focal length of the mirror if it is concave?
Which of the following ray diagrams correctly depicts the image formation by a concave mirror when the object is placed between the focal point and the mirror?
