This physics video tutorial provides a basic introduction into spherical mirrors such as concave mirrors and convex mirrors. It explains how to use the mirror equation to calculate the image distance given the focal length and the object distance. The focal length is the distance between the focal point and the mirror. The focal length is half of the radius of curvature. The focal length is positive for concave mirror and negative for convex mirrors. This video explains how to tell if the image is real or virtual. The image is real if solid lines converge to form the image. the image distance is positive for real images and negative for virtual images. The image is enlarged if the image height is greater than the object height. If the absolute value of the magnification is less than 1, the image is reduced. The image is upright if the magnification or the image height is positive. The image is inverted if the magnification is negative. This video contains plenty of examples and practice problems on geometric optics. two ray diagrams with concave mirrors are included in this video.
