Performance Task 4
Mirrors and Lenses
I. Direction: Draw a ray diagram and the image formed for each of the following cases.
Determine the mirror/lens used and locate the object’s position. Then, describe the image formed
using the PISO acronym.
P: Position of image
I: Image type (real or virtual)
S: Size of image (same size, smaller, larger than object)
O: Orientation of image (erect, inverted)
Mirror used:
Concave Mirror
Object’s position:
Infront of the mirror
P: Somewhere
between C & F
I: Real
S: Smaller
O: Inverted
Case 2
Mirror used:
Convex Mirror
Object’s position:
Infront of the mirror
P:Somewhere
between the F and
mirror
I: Virtual
S: Smaller
O: Erect
Case 3
Lens used:
Converging lens
Object’s position:
Object is beyond
P: Somewhere
between f and f
I: Real
S: Small size
O: Inverted
Case 4
Lens used:
Converging Lens
Object’s position:
Between 2f and f
P: Beyond 2f
I: Real
O: Inverted
Case 5
Lens used:
Diverging Lens
Object’s position:
Somewhere between
2f and f
P: Somewhere
Between f and optical
center
I: Virtual
S: Smaller
O: Erect
Problem 2. Your aunt is complaining about her difficulty in reading at a close distance. How
should you address her problem? What could her eye defect be?
My aunt has farsightedness, also known as hyperopia, which is a common visual
issue in which you can see far objects clearly but nearby objects are hazy. The
best suggestion I can give her is to see a doctor so that she can get the therapy
she needs for her ailment. However, convex lenses will aid her in reading at a
close range since the focal point of the eye falls behind the retina when the
distance between the retinas is too small.
