ConcepTest 35.2bMirror II You stand in front of a mirror. How
tall does the mirror have to be so that you can see yourself
entirely? 1) same as your height 2) less than your full height but
more than half your height 3) half your height 4) less than half
your height 5) any size will do
Slide 3
ConcepTest 35.2bMirror II i = r mirror only half your size
Trace the light rays from the images foot to the mirror and then to
the eye. Since we know that i = r, you need a mirror only half your
size. You stand in front of a mirror. How tall does the mirror have
to be so that you can see yourself entirely? 1) same as your height
2) less than your full height but more than half your height 3)
half your height 4) less than half your height 5) any size will
do

ConcepTest 35.2cMirror III Does this depend on your distance
from the mirror? 1) No. 2) Yes. 3) Depends on the mirror. 4)
Depends on the person.
Slide 5
ConcepTest 35.2cMirror III Does this depend on your distance
from the mirror? 1) No. 2) Yes. 3) Depends on the mirror. 4)
Depends on the person. The further you step back, the smaller the
incident and reflected angles will be. But the rays will still be
reflected at the same points, so the ray from the foot will still
be reflected at mid- height.

Formation of Images by Spherical Mirrors Spherical mirrors are
shaped like sections of a sphere, and may be reflective on either
the inside (concave) or outside (convex).
Slide 10
Formation of Images by Spherical Mirrors Rays coming from a
faraway object are effectively parallel.
Slide 11
Formation of Images by Spherical Mirrors Parallel rays striking
a spherical mirror do not all converge at exactly the same place if
the curvature of the mirror is large; this is called spherical
aberration.
Slide 12
Formation of Images by Spherical Mirrors If the curvature is
small, the focus is much more precise; the focal point is where the
rays converge.
Slide 13
Formation of Images by Spherical Mirrors Using geometry, we
find that the focal length is half the radius of curvature:
Spherical aberration can be avoided by using a parabolic reflector;
these are more difficult and expensive to make, and so are used
only when necessary, such as in research telescopes.
Slide 14
Formation of Images by Spherical Mirrors We use ray diagrams to
determine where an image will be. For mirrors, we use three key
rays, all of which begin on the object: 1. A ray parallel to the
principal axis; after reflection it passes through the focal point.
2. A ray through the focal point; after reflection it is parallel
to the principal axis. 3. A ray through the focal point; after
reflection it is parallel to the principal axis.

concave mirror and its focal point. The image formed is (A) virtual
and inverted. (B) virtual and upright. (C) real and upright. (D)

A mirror at an amusement park shows an upright image of any
person who stands 1.4 m in front of it. If the image is three times
the persons height, what is the radius of curvature? Images Formed
by Spherical Mirrors (Problem) M =M = The image characteristics
identify the case as concave #5 (larger, virtual, and upright). 3 =

Images Formed by Spherical Mirrors If you stand in front of a
concave mirror, exactly at its focal point, (A) you will see your
image at your same height. (B) you won't see your image because
there is none. (B) you will see your image, and you will appear
smaller. (C) you will see your image and you will appear
larger.
