Question

the stainless steel rear end of a tanker truck is convex and shiny, and has a radius of curvature of 2.0m. You're tailgating the truck, with the front end of your car only 5.0m behind it. Making the not very realistic assumption that your car is on the axis of the mirror formed by the tank. (a) determine the position, orientation, magnification, and type (real or virtual image) of your cars front end that forms in the mirror. (b) draw a principle ray diagram of the situation to check your answer.

Explanation / Answer

They are a measure of "how much" or "how quickly" a line curves. Start with a circle. A circle has a fixed radius and center of curvature. When It's plotted, it's a rate of change in direction is constant. Other curves still have these values, but rate of change is changing, so the radius and center of curvature is changing as you move along the curve.
