Question

What is the formula of power of a MIRROR ?? Does it contain -ve sign

Answer 1

Answer:

. Ray diagrams provide useful information about object-image relationships, yet fail to provide the information in a quantitative form. While a ray diagram may help one determine the approximate location and size of the image, it will not provide numerical information about image distance and image size. To obtain this type of numerical information, it is necessary to use the Mirror Equation and the Magnification Equation. The mirror equation expresses the quantitative relationship between the object distance (do), the image distance (di), and the focal length (f). The equation is stated as follows:

The magnification equation relates the ratio of the image distance and object distance to the ratio of the image height (hi) and object height (ho). The magnification equation is stated as follows:

These two equations can be combined to yield information about the image distance and image height if the object distance, object height, and focal length are known.

Answer 2

A mirror formula can be defined as the formula which gives the relationship between the distance of object 'u', the distance of image 'v', and the focal length of the mirror 'f'. The mirror formula is applicable both in plane mirrors and spherical mirrors (convex and concave mirrors).

For focal length, f in lens is always taken as negative for concave and positive for convex. ... It is taken as negative in Concave lens since image is formed in -X side of the Cartesian. In Concave mirror V is taken as positive and negative for convex mirror.

A lens formula may be defined as the formula which gives the relationship between the distance of image (v), distance of object (u), and the focal length (f) of the lens. It may be written as: Where, v = Distance of image from optical centre of lens.
