1. -Terminology -drawing images in mirrors

2.  Plane Mirror: ◦ A planar reflecting surface  Virtual Image ◦ Image formed by light reflecting off of a mirror

3. a) The image is located as far behind the mirror as the object forming it is in front of the mirror (distance (d i ) from the image to the mirror is equal to the distance (d o ) from the object to the mirror  d i = -d o

4. b) The image (H i ) is the same size as the object (H o )- magnification =+1 H i =H o

5.  Magnification (m)= Height of image (Hi) = - distance of image (di) height of object (Ho) distance of object (do) m= Hi = - di Ho do

6.  c) the image formed is upright but laterally inverted

7.  4 characteristics to consider: ◦ Magnification ◦ Attitude (upright or inverted) ◦ Type (real or virtual) ◦ Position

8.  Labs: ◦ Reflecting light off a plane mirror ◦ Viewing images in a plane mirror  Plane mirror races??
