Answer 2

Answer:

your options are wrong because it's answer is 20

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

f

1

=

v

1

+

u

1

Also,

m=

u

v

=

x

−y

Where,

y is image height

and x is object's height.

We have,

x=10 and y=−5

Also, v=30

∴u=60

Now, using mirror's formula:

f

1

=

30

1

+

60

∴f=20 cm
