the materials used in measuring could not be accurate because meter stick
is the assigned instrument in this experiment. I recommend that the future
students who will perform this experiment should use a smaller ruler for
accurate purposes.
Conclusion
After our experiment about Plane and Spherical mirrors objectives are
met. We are able to determine the number of image formed when plane
mirrors are placed at a certain angle and observed that as the angle
increases there would be less number of images reflected in the mirror. We
are also able to determine and describe the image formed using a plane and
spherical mirrors. In this experiment, we are able to determine and compute
the focal length of the spherical mirror. Using the intersection of rays
reflected by the mirror, we could calculate for the focal length by measuring
the distance of the intersection point to the curvature of the mirror. We also
relate that the radius of the circle is equal to the twice of focal length.
In the first part of our experiment we prove our date to be correct
based on the law of reflection which states that The law of reflection states
that the angle of incidence of a wave or stream of particles reflecting from a
boundary, conventionally measured from the normal to the interface, is
equal to the angle of reflection , measured from the same interface. In our
experiment we used the equation
