Question
Suppose you stand in front of a flat mirror and focus a camera on your image. If the camera is in focus when set for a distance of 3.00 m, how far are you standing from the mirror?
Step 1
This means that the image of the person standing in front of the mirror is formed the same distance behind the mirror. We can represent this as follows: \[d = d'\] where \(d\) is the object distance and \(d'\) is the image distance. Show more…
