explain magnification of mirror and lens
Answers
Answer:
The mirror formula
1f=1v+1u
Where
f
is the focal length of the mirror,
u
is the distance of the object from the mirror and
v
is the distance the image is formed from the mirror.
m=−vu
The size of an object’s image is larger (or smaller) than the object itself by its magnification,
M
. The level of magnification is proportional to the ratio of
v
and
u
. An image that is double the size of the object would have magnification
M=2
.
R=2f
The radius of curvature of a mirror is twice its focal length.
Example 1
In the situation illustrated below, the object is set up .5 m away from a converging mirror. If the focal length of the lens is .2 m, determine a) the location of the real image, and b) the magnification of the image.
Explanation:
here is your answer.
please mark me brainliest!
Magnification:
↪linear magnification
the linear magnification produced by a mirror is equal to the ratio of the image distance to the object distance, with minus sign.
m = (-v/u)
m = maginifacation
v= image distance
and u = object distance
↪ longitudinal magnification:
when an object lies along the principal Axis then its magnification known as longitudinal magnification, for small objects it is given by ;
m=( -dv/du)
