Question

A convex mirror used for rear-view on an automobile has a radius of curvature of 3.00 m. If a bus is located at 5.00 m from this mirror.
find the position, nature and size of the image.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The position of the bus (or object) from the mirror is given to be u=5⋅00m. The radius of curvature of the convex mirror is given to be R=3⋅00m, then its focal length will be f=R2=32=1⋅5m.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Radius of curvature 3m, then focal length 1.5m.

A bus located at 5m from this mirror,then u 5m.

for convex mirror +ve, after using mirror formula,

then using sign convention.
