The image height is thus the same as the object height, the image is upright, and the object distance d o is the same as the image distance d i . (credit: modification of work by Kevin Dufendach) This means that the distance \(PB\) from the object to the mirror is the same as the distance \(BQ\) from the mirror to the image.

In general the size of an image differs from the size of the object. Magnification (or diminution) can be quantified in two ways, both of which we will explore here.

For a converging lens, the focal point is the point at which converging light rays cross; for a diverging lens, the focal point is the point from which diverging light rays appear to originate. The distance from the center of the lens to its focal point is called the focal length \(f\). Power \(P\) of a lens is defined to be the inverse of its focal length, \(P = \frac{1}{f}\).

A plane mirror always forms a virtual image (behind the mirror). The image and object are the same distance from a flat mirror, the image size is the same as the object size, and the image is upright.
