A 4.0-cm-tall object is placed 12.0 cm from a convex mirror. If the image of the object is 2.0 cm tall, and the image is located at -6.0 cm, what is the focal length of the mirror? Draw a ray diagram to answer the question. Use the mirror equation and the magnification equation to verify your answer.

A convenience store uses a surveillance mirror to monitor the store’s aisles. Each mirror has a radius of curvature of 3.8 m. a. What is the image position of a customer who stands 6.5 m in front of the mirror? b. What is the image height of a customer who is 1.7 m tall?
