026 (part 1 of 4) 10.0 points A convex mirror with a focal length of 0.25 m forms a 0.081 m tall image of an automobile at a distance of 0.23 m behind the mirror. a) How far from the mirror is the car lo- cated?

None of these 9. virtual, inverted, smaller 029 (part 4 of 4) 10.0 points d) What is the height of the car? Answer in units of m

Explanation / Answer

1/u + 1/v = 1/f

1/u + 1/-0.23 = 1/-0.25

1/u = 1/0.23 - 1/0.25

u = 2.88 m

---------------------------------------

b) m = - q / p

m = 0.23 / 2.875

m = 0.08

-------------------------------------

c) image is virtual, upright and smaller

-------------------------------------

d) h0 = hi / m = 0.081 / 0.08

h = 1.01 m
