1. An object is placed in front of a convex mirror. The object is one half of the focal length tall and is placed three halves of the focal length in front of the mirror. Its base is on the principal axis.

a. Draw the situation described in the problem. Please try to be as close to scale as possible. Cardboard and notecards make great straight edges if you do not have a ruler. Please run other clever work arounds by me.

b. Draw the three principal rays on your diagram. Label each ray.

c. Draw the image on your diagram and label it. You should also indicate if it is real or virtual and if it is inverted or upright.

d. Verify that your drawings are as you expect by calculating the image location and size. Notice that your answer should be in terms of variables.

Please write clearly and circle answers

    An object O is placed at the location shown in front of a convex spherical mirror. Use ray tracing to determine the location and size of the image in the mirror. As you work, keep in mind the following properties of principal rays: A ray parallel to the axis, after reflection, passes through the focal point F of a concave mirror or appears to come from the (virtual) focal point of a convex mirror. A ray through (or proceeding toward)...
