Light incident on an object
• Absorption
Everything true for wavelengths << object size
• Reflection (bounces)**– See it– Mirrors
• Refraction (bends)– Lenses
• Often some of each

Flat Mirror Summary• Image appears:
– Upright– Same size– Located same distance from, but behind, mirror– Facing opposite direction: Left/Right inverted– Virtual Image: Light rays don’t actually intersect at
image location.

![Page 10: Physics 1161: Lecture 16 Introduction to Mirrors](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032523/56649d8d5503460f94a755a1/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Mirror ImagesAbe and Bev both look in a plane mirror directly in front of Abe. Abe can see himself while Bev cannot see herself. Can Abe see Bev (and can Bev see Abe)?
1. Extend edges of mirror with dashed lines.
2. Draw in the images.
3. Connect images and observers with lines of sight.
4. If the connecting
lines intersect with the mirror (not the extension of the mirror), they can see each other.

Three Useful Rays
• Ray parallel to the axis reflects through the focus.
• Ray through the focus reflects parallel to the axis.
• Ray through the center of curvature reflects back on itself.

Concave Mirror
Principal Axis Focus
Rays parallel to principal axis and near the principal axis (“paraxial rays”) all reflect so they pass through the “Focus” (F).
R
f=R/2
The distance from F to the center of the mirror is called the “Focal Length” (f).
f
R2
Rays are bent towards the principal axis.

closer than the focal length
at the focal length

Concave Mirror
Principal Axis FF
Rays traveling through focus before hitting mirror are reflected parallel to Principal Axis.
Rays traveling parallel to Principal Axis before hitting mirror are reflected through focus

Convex Mirror
Principal Axis Focus
Rays parallel to principal axis and near the principal axis (“paraxial rays”) all reflect so they appear to originate from the “Focus” (F).
R
f=-R/2
The distance from F to the center of the mirror is called the “Focal Length” (f).
f
R2
Rays are bent away from the principal axis.

Types of Curved Mirrors• A concave mirror is
silvered on the inside of the sphere.
• A concave mirror is also called a converging mirror because it converges parallel light.
• A convex mirror is silvered on the outside of the bowl.
• A convex mirror is also called a diverging mirror because it diverges parallel light.
