Answer:

reflection :

angle of reflection and angle of incidence is equal
Incident ray and reflect d ray plus normal lies on the same plan on a same point
light reflect uniformly if it is incident on a plan surface

refraction :

light will refrect if light goes from rare medium to a dense medium or vice versa
after the light is refracted, it retunes to its original direction
angle of incidence is not equal to the angle of refraction

A man standing 1.54 m in front of a shaving mirror produces a real, inverted image 15.2 cm from it. What is the focal length of

zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

The focal length is 16.86 cm and the distance of the man if he wants to form an upright image of his chin that is twice the chin's actual size is 8.43 cm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Object distance u=1.54 m =154 cm

Image distance v = 15.2 cm

Magnification = 2

We need to calculate the focal length

Using formula of mirror

$\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{v}+\dfrac{1}{u}$

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{15.2}+\dfrac{1}{-154}$

$\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{347}{5852}$

$f=16.86\ cm$

We need to calculate the focal length

Using formula of magnification

$m= \dfrac{-v}{u}$

Put the value into the formula

$2=\dfrac{v}{u}$

$v = -2u$

Using formula of for focal length

$\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{u}+\dfrac{1}{v}$

$\dfrac{1}{16.86}=\dfrac{1}{u}-\dfrac{1}{2u}$

$\dfrac{1}{16.86}=\dfrac{1}{2u}$

$2u=16.86$

$u=\dfrac{16.86}{2}$

$u=8.43\ cm$

Hence, The focal length is 16.86 cm and the distance of the man if he wants to form an upright image of his chin that is twice the chin's actual size is 8.43 cm.
