Question

An object 50 cm is placed at a distance of 15 cm from a concave mirror of focal length 10 cm. Find the position, nature and height of the image.

Answer 1

Dear Student ,

H=50 cm
u = 15 cm
f= 10 cm
by using mirror formula

1/v=1/f-1/u
1/v=1/-10 + 1/15
1/v=-3+2/30
v=-30

height of the image

h'/h=-v/u
h'/50=30/-15
h'=100 cm

position = 30 cm from concave mirror

nature = real and inverted
