A4.0-cm tall light bulb is placed at distance of 8.3 cm from a concave mirror having a focal length of 15.2 cm. determine the image distance and the image size. also indicate the orientation of the image compared to the object as well as if it will be a real or virtual image.

the image distance is -18, 28 cm this means behind of the concave mirror. The image size is 2.2 higher that the original  so it has 8.8 cm with the same orientation as original  and it is a virtual imagen.

Explanation: In order to sove the imagen formation for a concave mirror we have to use the following equation:

1/p+1/q=1/f  where p and q represents the distance to the mirror  for the object and imagen, respectively. f is the focal length for the concave mirror.

replacing the values we obtain:

1/8.3+1/q=1/15.2

so 1/q=(1/15.2)-(1/8.3)=-54.7*10^-3

then q=-18.28 cm

The magnification is given by M=-q/p=-(-18,28)/8.3= 2.2

We also add a picture to see the imagen formation for this case.

wind moving at higher speeds will transfer more energy to the water, resulting in stronger waves.
