Physics 1212
Exam #4B (Final)
Instructions:
This is a closed-book, closed-notes exam. You are allowed to use a clean print-out of your
formula sheet, any scientific calculator, and a ruler. Do not write on your formula sheet,
except for your name: it must be handed in, signed but clean, with your exam.
There is space after each question to show your work; if you need more space, you may use
the back of the page, or request more paper. Please clearly indicate where your work for
each problem is. Underline or draw a box around your final answer.
The exam consists of six sections. Read all the questions at the start so that you can allocate
your time wisely. Do easy ones first!
You may not share your calculator. The use of cell phones or any other electronic devices (besides calculators) is prohibited. All such gadgets must be turned off and put away
throughout the exam.
• Do not open the exam until told to begin.
• You have the one entire class period to finish the exam.
• Put your last name on every page of the exam and on the formula sheet.
• You must provide explanations and/or show work legibly to receive full credit for
Sections II and III.
• Make sure that your answers include appropriate units and significant digits. (Note:
For intermediate steps in your calculation, it’s best to carry more significant digits.)
• Fundamental constants and unit prefixes are on the Formula Sheet, last page.
By signing below, you indicate that you understand the instructions for this exam and agree
to abide by them. You also certify that you will personally uphold the university’s standards
of academic honesty for this exam, and will not tolerate any violations of these standards by
others. Unsigned exams will not be graded.

II: A Candle in the Mirror (35 points)
A burning candle, 16cm tall, is placed 25cm from a spherical mirror which produces an erect
image of the candle, 32cm tall.
It is critically important that you make drawings of the positioning of the various elements
(optical axis, mirror, candle, focal point, mirror’s center, screen), as needed, in each of the
three parts of this problem
(a) What is the mirror’s focal length and what is the radius of the mirror’s spherical
surface? Is this a convergent (=concave) or a divergent (=convex) mirror? Is the
candle’s image virtual or real?
Hint: Find d0 from d and m, then f from d and d0 .
(b) At what distance from the mirror would the candle’s position on the optical axis
coincide with that of its image?
A candle’s flame is always pointing upward. Would
the candle’s image at that location show a flame pointing upward or downward? Is the
image real or vitual?
(c) A projection screen is now placed at some distance from the same mirror and the same
candle is placed somewhere between the mirror and the screen. The mirror projects a
sharp image of the candle onto the screen and this image is inverted and 64cm tall in
absolute height. How far from the mirror is the screen and how far from the screen is
the candle?
Hint: Get d0 and d from m and f .

VI: Draw a Ray Diagram (Extra Credit: 10 points)
A real object is positioned to the left of a convergent mirror, at a distance from the
mirror which is greater than twice the absolute value of the mirror’s focal length. Use a
ruler to draw a clean ray diagram for the formation of the image, showing at least two of the
principal rays, the mirror and its focal point, the object and the image, all of them clearly
labeled. Also clearly label the incoming and the outgoing side of the mirror. Is the image
real or virtual?
Warning: If you use the C-ray as one of the principal rays, be aware that it does not pass
straight through the mirror, but rather gets reflected at the mirror, subject to the law of
reflection: angle of incidence = angle of reflection, with the optical axis being the normal to
the mirror surface.
