what is linear magnification?
Asked by maneksingh31 | 25 Aug, 2010, 12:00: AM
Expert Answer
Linear magnification is ratio of the size of the image to the size of the object.
We know,
Concave Mirror
For Real Image
using sign conventionAlBl = -h2 ; AB = +h1
PBl = -V, PB = - u
For Virtual Image
AlBl = +h2 ; AB = h1
PBl = +V ; PB = -u
Convex Mirror
AlBl = +h2 ; AB = +h1
PBl = +v ; PB = -uNote:
If m>1, image is enlarged.
If m <1, image is diminished.
If m is +ve , image is erect and virtual.
If m is -ve, image is inverted and real.Other formulae for magnification
