Focal Length Of A Concave Mirror
Aim: To observe the focal length of a concave mirror.
Materials:
· Concave Mirror
· Retort Stand
· 2 Pins in stands
· Candle
· Matches
· Ruler
· Screen
Procedure:
1. An approximate focal length was found using parallel light from a
distant object.
2. The mirror was placed in a stand. Pin (A) was moved in its stand,
in front of the mirror till there was no parallax between the pin and
its inverted image.
3. The distance from the object to the mirror was measured.
4. The object pin was placed between F and C. Then the second pin (B)
was moved about till there was no parallax between (B) and the image
(A). The distances of the image and objects were measured.
5. Step 4 was repeated for another position of (A).
6. The image of a light source was located using a screen. Then the
image and object distances were measured.
7. Step 6 was repeated twice.
8. The corresponding values of u and v were tabulated.
Results:

0.50 m
2.00 m
0.55 m
1.40 m
0.60 m
1.25 m
0.65 m
1.00 m
0.70 m
0.95 m
0.75 m
0.57 m
Data Analysis:
· The tabulated results of step 8 illustrated the image distance,
[IMAGE] and the object distance [IMAGE].
Graphical method
· The two variables, [IMAGE] and [IMAGE] were substituted into the
linear equation y = mx + c to form [IMAGE]= - [IMAGE] + [IMAGE].
· The data was plotted on the graph [IMAGE] versus [IMAGE], thus
proving the relationship between the variables and the linear
equation.
See Figure 1.1
Algebraic method
I. The mirror formula [IMAGE]=[IMAGE]+[IMAGE] was used to calculate f,
the focal length of the mirror for each of the results.

Mirror: a live entity. The movie shows that the mirror is alive and covered with gold draped. The portrayal of unsecure feelings of the Queen could be the identity of the mirror. It is because only the Queen can see the mirror alive. It shows the progress of the Queen and her fate in the story.

Finding the Focal Length of a Given Convex Lens Aim: - To find the focal length of a given convex lens. Apparatus: - Convex lens Metre rule Screen Candle Matches Wooden blocks Theory:- In this experiment the focal length of a lens is found out. The focal lens of a lens is the distance from the principal focus to the optical centre.
