i do not think so because a mirror an a lens is two same things except that mirrors can reflect the water and the lens may refract or bend the water so that can change the focal length between the mirror and the lens

Image formed by spherical mirror?

Spherical mirrors can form either real or virtual images depending on their design. Concave mirrors can form real images that are inverted if the object is placed beyond the mirror's focal point. Convex mirrors always produce virtual images that are upright and smaller than the actual object. The image characteristics will vary based on the object's distance from the mirror and the type of mirror being used.


What is a concave mirror has a radius of curvature of 40.5 cm. how far is the mirror from the persons face?

The focal length of a mirror with a radius of curvature of 40.5 cm is half of the radius, so it is 20.25 cm. The mirror's face would be placed around this focal length distance from the person's face for optimal viewing.


What mirror gives virtual and larger image than the object?

A concave mirror can give a virtual and larger image than the object when the object is placed within the focal length of the mirror. When the object is placed beyond the focal point, a real, inverted, smaller image is formed.


What happens to the image in a concave mirror when an object is closer to the mirror than one focal length?

When an object is placed closer to a concave mirror than its focal length, the image formed is virtual, upright, and magnified. The image is located behind the mirror, and the rays of light appear to diverge from a point behind the mirror rather than converging at a real focal point.


What type of mirror is used whenever a magnified image of an object is used?

A concave mirror is typically used to create a magnified image of an object. The mirror curves inward and can produce an enlarged virtual image when the object is placed within the focal length of the mirror.

A concave mirror and a convex lens are held in waterwhat changes if any do you expect in their focal length?

Excellent question. The answer is actually yes! According to the lens makers formula, it will change based on the refractive index of the material of the concave mirror wrt the medium. Google Lens makers formula for better understanding! NO! the focal length of the mirror will not change if it would be a lens then the focal length would change. The lens maker's formula is for Lenses only!


What is the focal length of a mirror when it is placed in water with respect to air?

The focal length remains the same because only refraction is affected by the different media. Reflection does not depend on the media.


Image form by concave mirror?

A2. A concave mirror is commonly used as a make-up mirror or a shaving mirror. For at close distances, (well inside it focal length) it gives a modest magnification. At distances greater than its focal length, it gives diminished images.
