A convex mirror has a focal length of -44.0 cm. A 12.0-cm-tall object is located 36.0 cm in front of this mirror.

(a) Using a ray diagram drawn to scale, determine the location of the image. Note that the mirror must be drawn to scale.
cm

(b) Using a ray diagram drawn to scale, determine the size of the image. (Use a negative sign for an inverted image, positive for upright.)

Answer #1

First of all I cannot draw the figure in scale as I don't have the instruments. But you can draw it by looking at the figure outline.

Also the focal length of a convex mirror cannot be negative which might be a mistake in the question. So f = +44 cm.

The answers to the given question are done analytically. If you draw the figure you can measure out the solutions easily.

thank you.
