| Spherical Mirror: Concave, Plane and Convex | ||
| If |h/R| < 0.2, we can use the Thin Lens Equation with f = R/2: | ||
| 1/o + 1/i = 1/f | Or: | i = o* f /(o - f) |
|
View the image (I) of an object (O) is responding to the changes of its distance (o) to the Mirror, its height (h) and the type of Mirror (f > 0 for concave, f = infinity for plane and f < 0 convex). |
Note: To see these simulations using Swing/Java2D, you must intall
J2SE (or JVM plug-in) 1.4.0 or up from Sun Microsystems
