What I Need to Know

This module was developed to strengthen your knowledge about how mirrors
and lenses work. It is designed to help you master the concepts of how our image is
formed in the mirror and how the lenses correct eye deficiencies.

After comprehending this module, you are supposed to:

1. Explain image formation as an application of reflection, refraction, and

paraxial approximation. (STEM_GP12OPT-IVd-22)
2. Relate properties of mirrors and lenses (radii of curvature, focal length, index
of refraction [for lenses]) to image and object distances and sizes.
(STEM_GP12OPT-IVd-23)
3. Determine graphically and mathematically the type (virtual/real),
magnification, location, and orientation of image of a point and extended
object produced by a plane or spherical mirror. (STEM_GP12OPT-IVd-24)
4. Determine graphically and mathematically the type (virtual/real),
magnification, location/apparent depth, and orientation of image of a point
and extended object produced by a lens or series of lenses. (STEM_GP12OPT-
IVd-27)
5. Apply the principles of geometric optics to discuss image formation by the
eye, and the correction of common vision defects. (STEM_GP12OPT-IVd-28)

How many times do you look at your face in the mirror? How are you able to
see your image? How can we see distant and minute objects?
This module can give you meaningful and fun learning experiences. The key
is to use your time and resources efficiently.

 What is it
Mirrors

These are optical instruments that allow tremendous light reflection. A

mirror exhibits the law of reflection by forming an image of the object when placed
in front of it. It is classified into planar or curved. A curved mirror can be classified
into convex or concave.
A plane mirror projects an image
that is the same size as the object. Its focal
point does not exist on the real side, so it
forms a virtual image. Virtual images are
images which formed in places where it
cannot be reached by light. Light does not
actually pass through the location on other
side of the mirror; it only appears to an
observer as though the light is coming from
this location.
A curved mirror is a reflecting surface in which its surface is a section of a
sphere. The focal point of the curved mirror where all the reflected rays are focused
is denoted by F. The distance between the focus and the mirror is called focal length,
f. Twice the focal point (2F) is labeled center of curvature (C), while its distance from
the mirror is called radius of curvature, r. The center of the curved mirror is called
vertex (V). The horizontal line along the curved mirror where the vertex, focus, and
center of curvature lies is identified as principal axis.

Two Kinds of Curved Mirrors:

1. The Concave Mirror
• It is a curved mirror in which the
reflective surface bulges away from
the light source.
• It is called Converging Mirror
because the parallel incident rays
converge at a focal point after
reflection.
2. The Convex Mirror
• It is a curved mirror in which the
reflective surface bulges towards
the light source.
• It is called Diverging Mirror because
the parallel incident rays diverge
after reflection. When extending
the reflected rays behind the
mirror, the rays converge at the
focus behind the mirror.

Images Formed by Curved Mirrors

Paraxial approximation utilizes light rays that configure small angles with
reference to the principal axis. This is used to determine the formation of image in
mirrors. Ray diagram can be used to find out the image location, size, orientation,
and type of image formed of objects when placed at a given location in front of
curved mirrors.
Steps in Determining the Image Using Ray Diagram

Concave Mirror (Converging Mirror) Convex Mirror (Diverging Mirror)

1. Make a ray of light from the top of 1. Make a ray of light from the top of
the object parallel to the principal axis the object parallel to the principal axis

3. The intersection of the reflected rays 3. The intersection of the extended

the image.

The Mirror Equation

The equation of mirrors for both concave and convex is written by

2 1 1 1
= = +
𝑟 𝑓 𝑝 𝑞
where: r = radius of curvature
f = focal length
p= object’s distance from the mirror
q= image’s distance from the mirror
 The object’s distance is always positive. When the image is real, then q is
positive, and it is negative for virtual image. The concave mirror contains positive
values for both f and r, while convex mirrors have both negative values.
Furthermore, the magnification of the image formed by the curved mirrors is
written by
𝑖𝑚𝑎𝑔𝑒 𝑑𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒 𝑞 𝑖𝑚𝑎𝑔𝑒 𝑠𝑖𝑧𝑒
𝑀𝑎𝑔𝑛𝑖𝑓𝑖𝑐𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 = = =
𝑜𝑏𝑗𝑒𝑐𝑡 𝑑𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒 𝑝 𝑜𝑏𝑗𝑒𝑐𝑡 𝑠𝑖𝑧𝑒
Example 1: A 5-cm tall light bulb located at a distance of 45 cm from a concave
mirror having a focal length of 10.5 cm. Determine the image distance and the image
size.
Solution:
1 1 1
= + 𝑖𝑚𝑎𝑔𝑒 𝑠𝑖𝑧𝑒 𝑞
𝑓 𝑝 𝑞 =
𝑜𝑏𝑗𝑒𝑐𝑡 𝑠𝑖𝑧𝑒 𝑝
1 1 1
= + 𝑖𝑚𝑎𝑔𝑒 𝑠𝑖𝑧𝑒 13.7
10.5 45 𝑞 =
5 45
1 1 1
− = (5)(13.7)
10.5 45 𝑞 𝑖𝑚𝑎𝑔𝑒 𝑠𝑖𝑧𝑒 =
45
45(1) − 10.5(1) 1
= 𝑖𝑚𝑎𝑔𝑒 𝑠𝑖𝑧𝑒 = 1.52 𝑐𝑚
(10.5)(45) 𝑞
𝑞 = 13.7 𝑐𝑚
The image distance is 13.7 cm. The positive sign indicates that the image is
real. Furthermore, the image size is 1.52 cm and it is inverted as the object’s
position is farther than C.

Example 2: What should be the radius and type of mirror to be used to form an
upright image that is one-fourth of the object positioned 20 cm in front of it.

Solution: Use the magnification to solve for the image distance. The upright image
formed by mirrors hinted that the image is virtual. Therefore, q is negative.
−𝑞 1 −𝑞 1 𝑞 = −5 𝑐𝑚
= =
𝑝 4 20 4

Use the mirror equation to solve for the radius,

2 1 1
= + 2 −3
𝑟 𝑝 𝑞 =
2 1 1 𝑟 20
= +
𝑟 20 −5
−40
𝑟=
2 1 − 4(1) 3
= 𝑟 = −13.3 𝑐𝑚
𝑟 20

Convex mirror must be used since the radius of curvature is negative, and it
should be approximately 13.3 cm.

Lenses

These are transparent devices composed of glass or plastic that allow light
rays to refract and focuses them at a certain point. The focal point of the lenses
where all the refracted rays are focused is denoted by F. The distance between the
focus and the lens is called focal length, f. Twice the focal point (2F) is labeled center
of curvature (C) while its distance from the lens is called radius of curvature, r. The
center of the lens is called vertex (V). The horizontal line along the lens where the
vertex, focus, and center of curvature lies is identified as principal axis.
The focal point of the converging lens is real because the image will be formed
by the refracted rays behind the lens. In contrast, the focal point of the diverging
lens is regarded as virtual because the image will be formed from the extended
refracted rays in front of the lens.

Types of Lenses:

1. The Converging (Positive) Lens

• It is thicker in the center than the
edges.
• It forms real images and virtual
images based on the position of
object.
• It converges the refracted light rays
towards the focal point.

2. The Diverging (Negative) Lens

• It is thicker at the edges and thinner
in the center.
• It forms upright and reduced images.
• It diverges the refracted light rays in
the direction of the focal point.

Images Formed by Lenses

Steps in Identifying the Image of Converging and Diverging Lenses

Converging Lens Diverging Lens
1. Make a ray of light from the top of the 1. Make a ray of light from the top of
object parallel to the principal axis, then the object parallel to the principal

The Lens Equation

The equation of lenses for both converging and diverging is written by

2 1 1 1
= = +
𝑟 𝑓 𝑝 𝑞
where: r = radius of curvature
f = focal length
p= object’s distance from the lens
q= image’s distance from the lens

The object’s distance p is positive for real and negative for virtual. When the
image is real then q is positive, and it is negative for virtual image. The converging
lens contains positive values for both f and r while diverging lens has both negative
values.
Furthermore, the magnification of the image formed by any lens is written by
𝑖𝑚𝑎𝑔𝑒 𝑑𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒 𝑞 𝑖𝑚𝑎𝑔𝑒 𝑠𝑖𝑧𝑒
𝑀𝑎𝑔𝑛𝑖𝑓𝑖𝑐𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 = = =
𝑜𝑏𝑗𝑒𝑐𝑡 𝑑𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒 𝑝 𝑜𝑏𝑗𝑒𝑐𝑡 𝑠𝑖𝑧𝑒

In addition, an important application of image formation in lenses is

developed by the Lens Maker’s Equation which is given by
1 1 1
= (𝑛 − 1)( + )
𝑓 𝑟1 𝑟2

where: n = index of refraction of the lens

r1 and r2 = radii of curvature of the two surfaces
f = focal length of the lens

Example 3: What is the image distance and size if a 5-cm tall light bulb is placed
45.5 cm from a converging lens having a focal length of 15.4 cm?

Solution: Using the equation for lenses to solve for the image distance,

1 1 1 1 1 1
= + − =
𝑓 𝑝 𝑞 15.4 45.5 𝑞
1 1 1 1
= + = 0.0430
15.4 45.5 𝑞 𝑞
𝑞 = 23.3 𝑐𝑚

Since the image distance is positive, then it is real.

 To solve for the image size, we will use the magnification equation,

𝑖𝑚𝑎𝑔𝑒 𝑑𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒 𝑞 𝑖𝑚𝑎𝑔𝑒 𝑠𝑖𝑧𝑒

𝑀𝑎𝑔𝑛𝑖𝑓𝑖𝑐𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 = = =
𝑜𝑏𝑗𝑒𝑐𝑡 𝑑𝑖𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑐𝑒 𝑝 𝑜𝑏𝑗𝑒𝑐𝑡 𝑠𝑖𝑧𝑒

23.3 𝑖𝑚𝑎𝑔𝑒 𝑠𝑖𝑧𝑒 23.3 𝑥 5 𝑖𝑚𝑎𝑔𝑒 𝑠𝑖𝑧𝑒 = 2.56 𝑐𝑚

= 𝑖𝑚𝑎𝑔𝑒 𝑠𝑖𝑧𝑒 =
45.5 5 45.5

Since the object is behind the center of curvature, then the image size is
reduced.

Example 4: A glass lens has a convex and concave surface with radii of 30 cm and
50 cm, respectively. Calculate the focal length of the lens and determine if it is a
converging or diverging lens. (rglass=1.54)

Solution: Using the Lens Maker’s Equation

1 1 1 1
= (𝑛 − 1)( + ) = 0.0288
𝑓 𝑟1 𝑟2 𝑓
𝑓 = 34.72 𝑐𝑚
1 1 1
= (1.54 − 1)( + )
𝑓 30 50
Since the focal length is positive, hence the lens is a converging lens.

Formation of Image by the Eye, Vision Defects and Corrective Lenses

The camera has the same parts like

the eye. On one side of the camera is an
opening called aperture through which light
enters. A convex lens covers this opening. A
shutter that corresponds to our eyelids
opens or closes the aperture. Thus, it can
keep the inside of the camera completely
dark. The aperture corresponds to the pupil.
Behind the shutter is the iris diaphragm.
The diaphragm changes the size of the lens
opening in the same manner that the iris
controls the pupil’s size to regulate light
that enters. A photographic film that
corresponds to the retina is placed behind
the iris diaphragm inside the camera.

The inability of the eye to focus on

distant objects is known as nearsightedness or myopia. The nearsighted eye has no
difficulty viewing nearby objects but finds it a problem to view distant objects. A
diverging lens is needed to correct a nearsighted eye.

The eye’s inability to focus on nearby objects is known as farsightedness or

hyperopia. The farsighted eye has no difficulty viewing distant objects, but the
ability to view nearby objects requires a lens shape. The correction for the farsighted
eye centers on assisting the eye lens in refracting the light. This is done by using a
converging lens.

The power of the lens is written by

1
𝑙𝑒𝑛𝑠 𝑝𝑜𝑤𝑒𝑟 =
𝑓
where: f = focal length
Lens power is measured through diopters (m-1)

Example: Jimmy is a farsighted person who finds it difficult to see objects closer
than 85 cm from his eyes. What will be the corrective lens’s power that enables him
to see objects at a distance of 35 cm?

Solution: The image must be on the same side of the lens as the object, then the
image must be virtual (q=-85 cm).

1 1 1

𝑓 𝑝 𝑞 𝑓 = 59.5 𝑐𝑚 = 0.595 𝑚

1 1 1 1 1

𝑓 35 85 𝑓 0.595

1 2 𝑙𝑒𝑛𝑠 𝑝𝑜𝑤𝑒𝑟 = 1.68 𝑚−1

=
𝑓 119

Since the lens power is positive, hence converging lens must be used.

Example: Stephen is a nearsighted person who is having a hard time to see objects
beyond 90 cm from his eyes. What must be the power of the corrective lens that
helps him to see objects clearly upon his limits?

Solution: The image must be on the same side of the lens as the object, then the
1
image must be virtual (q=-90 cm). Also, approaches zero as the distance increases.
𝑝
By using lens equation,

1 1 1 𝑓 = −90 𝑐𝑚 = −0.90 𝑚
= +
𝑓 𝑝 𝑞
1 1
𝑙𝑒𝑛𝑠 𝑝𝑜𝑤𝑒𝑟 = =
1 1 𝑓 −0.90
=0−
𝑓 90
𝑙𝑒𝑛𝑠 𝑝𝑜𝑤𝑒𝑟 = −1.11 𝑚−1

Since the lens power is negative, hence diverging lens must be used.
The Microscope

This instrument is very useful

to see extremely small objects like
bacteria as an application in the field
of medical and biological sciences. It
increases the size of an object’s image
on the retina and therefore increases
the details to be observed.
In a compound microscope,
two converging lenses are used. The
first lens, called the objective lens, is
of very short focal length. It can be
placed very near the object. It forms
the first real, inverted, enlarged image
of the object. The second lens is the
eyepiece lens, also with short focal
length but longer than that of the
objective lens. It produces the final
virtual and enlarged image of the
object. For the highest magnification,
both lenses must have short focal
lengths.

The magnification of the microscope is given by

25 𝑐𝑚 𝑞0
𝑀=( + 1)( − 1)
𝑓𝑒 𝑓0
where: fe =focal length of the eyepiece lens
f0 = focal length of the objective lens
q0 = image distance from the objective lens (usually 18 cm)

Example: A particular microscope has an objective lens (4mm) and two

interchangeable eyepiece lenses (4cm and 6cm). Calculate the possible
magnification of the microscope if the eyepiece lens and objective lens are 18 cm
apart.

Solution:
For 𝑓0 = 4 𝑚𝑚 and 𝑓𝑒 = 4 𝑐𝑚, then

25 18
𝑀=( + 1) ( − 1) = 319
4 0.4
For 𝑓0 = 4 𝑚𝑚 and 𝑓𝑒 = 6 𝑐𝑚, then

25 18
𝑀=( + 1) ( − 1) = 227
6 0.4

The Telescope

It is a device used for viewing faraway objects, such as moon and stars. It
increases the size of an object’s image on the retina. This allows an observer to see
more details of the object. It is also widely used in astronomy and navigation.
 Two types of lenses are used in a telescope. The first one is a very large lens
that collects a large amount of light from a faraway object called an objective lens.
It has a very long focal length because the object distance, which may be anywhere
from a few kilometers up to billions or trillions of kilometers. The objective lens
forms the object’s first real, inverted, and diminished image. The second lens is the
eyepiece lens which has a short focal length. It acts like a magnifying lens for the
image cast by the objective lens. It forms a final virtual, enlarged image.
The magnification of the telescopes is given by
𝑓0
𝑀=
𝑓𝑒
Example: A telescope has an objective lens and eyepiece lens of focal lengths 120
cm and 4 cm, respectively. Compute the magnifying power of the telescope.

Solution: Using the magnification formula,

𝑓0 120
𝑀= 𝑀= = 30
𝑓𝑒 4
Therefore, the magnification of the telescope is 30.
