1 6. C a p t e r at G l a n c e Ligt related penomena can be studied wit mirrors and lenses. A mirror is a reflecting surface wile a lens is a transparent material. Mirrors are mainly of tree types : plane mirror, concave or converging mirror, convex or diverging mirror. Lenses are mainly of two types : concave or diverging lens; convex or converging lens. Focal lengt of convex mirror is positive wile tat of concave mirror is negative. Focal lengt of convex lens is positive wile tat of concave lens is negative. Focal lengt ( f) of concave mirror is always negative, object distance (u) is always negative and image distance ( v) is negative in case of real and inverted image because tis type of image is formed on te same side of te mirror as tat of te object. Image distance ( v) is positive incase of virtual and erect image because tis type of image is formed beind te mirror. Mirror formula : + v u = f 2 M (magnification produced by sperical mirror) = = v u 2 = eigt of te image = eigt of te object 2 is negative for inverted image and positive for erect image. is always positive. Heigt upward (+ve) R Unique Solutions Focal lengt ( f ) of convex lens is always positive, object distance (u) is always negative and image distance ( v) is negative incase of virtual and erect image because tis type of image is formed on te same side of te lens as te object.
