Image Distance of Convex Mirror

Go Image Distance of Convex Mirror = (Object Distance of Convex Mirror*Focal Length of Convex Mirror)/(Object Distance of Convex Mirror-(Focal Length of Convex Mirror))

Object Distance in Convex Mirror

Go Object Distance of Convex Mirror = (Image Distance of Convex Mirror*Focal Length of Convex Mirror)/(Image Distance of Convex Mirror-Focal Length of Convex Mirror)

Focal Length of Convex Mirror

Go Focal Length of Convex Mirror = 1/((1/Object Distance of Convex Mirror)+(1/Image Distance of Convex Mirror))

Magnification of Convex Mirror

Go Magnification of Convex Mirror = Image Distance of Convex Mirror/Object Distance of Convex Mirror

Magnification of Convex Mirror using Height

Go Magnification of Convex Mirror = Image Height in Convex Mirror/Object Height in Convex Mirror

Focal Length of Convex Mirror given Radius

Go Focal Length of Convex Mirror = -Radius of Convex Mirror/2

Focal Length of Convex Mirror given Radius Formula

Focal Length of Convex Mirror = -Radius of Convex Mirror/2
f_convex = -r_convex/2

What is Object Distance?

Object distance is the distance between the object and the optical center of a lens or mirror. It determines where the object is placed relative to the optical device and affects the formation and characteristics of the image.
