SIGN CONVENTIONSThe following sign convention is used for measuring various distances in the ray diagrams of spherical mirrors:
All distances are measured from the pole of the mirror.
Distances measured in the direction of the incident ray are positive and the distances measured in the direction opposite to that of the incident rays are negative.
Distances measured above the principal axis are positive and that measured below the principal axis are negative.

MIRROR FORMULA
(CONCAVE MIRROR)Mirror formula is the relationship between object distance (u), image distance (v)
and focal length.
The mirror formula for a cincave mirror is 1/v+1/u = 1/f.
Derivation
The figure shows an object AB at a distance u from the pole of a concave mirror. The image A 1 B 1 is formed at a distance v from the mirror. The position of the image is obtained by drawing a ray diagram.
Consider the A1CB1 and ACB

[When two angles of D A1CB1 and D ACB are equal then the third
angle
(AAA – similarity criterion)
But ED = AB
From equations (1) and (2)
If D is very close to P then EF = PF
But PC = R, PB = u, PB 1 = v, PF = f
By sign conventionPC = -R, PB = -u, PF = -f and PB 1 = -v
Equation (3) can be written as

Dividing equation (4) throughout by uvf we get
Equation (5) gives the mirror formula. MIRROR FORMULA
(CONVEX MIRROR)Let AB be an object placed on the
principal axis of a convex mirror of
focal length f. u is the distance
between the object and the mirror and
v is the distance between the image
and the mirror.

(AAA – similarity criterion)
But DE = AB and when the aperture is very small EF = PF.
Equation (2) becomes
From equations (1) and (3) we get
[PF = f, PB1 = v, PB = u, PC = 2f]
![Page 6: Derivations in optics](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082916/54be934a4a79590c528b4575/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Dividing both sides of the equation (4) by uvf we get
The above equation gives the mirror formula. LENS FORMULA(CONVEX LENS)
![Page 7: Derivations in optics](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082916/54be934a4a79590c528b4575/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Let AB represent an object placed at right angles to the principal axis at a distance
greater than the focal length f of the convex lens. The image A1B1 is formed beyond
2F2 and is real and inverted.
OA = Object distance = u
OA1 = Image distance = v
OF2 = Focal length = f
OAB and OA1B1 are similar (AAA – similarity criterion)
But we know that OC = AB The above equation can be written as
From equation (1) and (2), we get
Dividing equation (3) throughout by uvf
The above equation is the lens formula.
![Page 8: Derivations in optics](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082916/54be934a4a79590c528b4575/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
LENS FORMULA(CONCAVE LENS)
Let AB represent an object placed at right angles to the principal axis at a distance
greater than the focal length f of the convex lens. The image A1B1 is formed
between O and F1 on the same side as the object is kept and the image is erect and
virtual.
OF1 = Focal length = f
OA = Object distance = u
OA1 = Image distance = v
(AAA – similarity criterion)
![Page 9: Derivations in optics](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082916/54be934a4a79590c528b4575/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Similarily,
But from the ray diagram we see that OC = AB
From equation (1) and equation (2), we get
Dividing throughout by uvf
The above equation is the lens formula.
![Page 10: Derivations in optics](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082916/54be934a4a79590c528b4575/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
MAGNIFICATION IN MIRROR
Let AB be an object placed perpendicular to the principle axis in front of concave mirror. A ray AD parallel to the principle axis passes through the focus after reflection from the mirror. A ray AP making i with the principle axis after reflection
![Page 11: Derivations in optics](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082916/54be934a4a79590c528b4575/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
makes an angle i = r with the principle axis. These two reflected rays intersect
each other at A1. So A1B1 is the real, inverted and magnified image of the object
Now,
Between APB andA1PB1, we have –
ABP = A1B1P
APB = A1PB1
’s APB and A1PB1 are similar (AA – similarity criterion)
AB/A1B1 = BP/B1P
Height of object (h1)/height of image (h2) =object distance (u)/image dist. (v).
Applying sign conventions we get –
h1/-h2 = -u/-v
Or, h1/h2 =-u/v
Or, m =-u/v
Since (h1/h2 = m).
This the formula for the magnification produced by a spherical mirror.
Note: The formula for the magnification produced by both convex and concave mirror is the same.

MAGNIFICATION IN LENS
In the above figure, AB is the size of the object and A’B’ is the size or height of the
image. Now,
Between’s AOB and A’OB’, we have-
AOB = A’OB’ (vertically opposite angle),
BAO = B’A’O (900 each)
’s AOB and A’OB’ are similar. (AA – similarity criterion)
A’B’/AB = A’O/AO (sides are proportional)
height of the image (h’)/ height of the object (h) = image dist.(v)/object dist.(u)
Applying sign conventions we get –
-h’/h = -v/u
Or, h’/h = v/u
![Page 13: Derivations in optics](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082916/54be934a4a79590c528b4575/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Or, m = v/u
This the formula for the magnification produced by a lens.
