Physics

The rearview mirror of a car is a convex mirror (R = -15 m).Consider the image formed by a car that is 10 m from themirror.

  1. A convex mirror means that the mirror has a _positive/ negative_radius of curvature. So, the center of curvature and

    focal length are located on the _same/ opposite_ side of themirror as the incident and reflected (outgoing) light.

  2. For a mirror, the focal length is equal to __________ of theradius of curvature.

  3. What is the image distance?

  4. What is the image magnification?

  5. The sign of the image distance is ___________________, so theimage is _real/ virtual_ and is formed on the _same/ opposite_mirror side as the object. The sign of the magnification is__________________, so the image is _upright/ inverted_. Themagnification is _less than/ equal to/ greater than_ 1, so theimage size is ______________________ than the object size.
