Question

An object 1cm high is held near the concave mirror of magnification 10 . how tall will be the image ?

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Write down the formula for magnification.

Magnification = height of image / height of the object.

Analyze the given components in the question.

From the question we have :

Height of the image = h

Height of the of the object = 1 cm

Magnification = 10

Work out the height of the image from the given formula above.

10 = h/1

h = 1 × 10 = 10 cm

The height of the image is therefore 10 cm

Answer 2

Answer:

10 TIMES OF THE OBJECT HEIGHT

Explanation:

MAGNIFICATION IS EQUAL TO THE RATIO OF IMAGE HEIGHT TO OBJECT HEIGHT.

H.I/H.O=MAGNIFICATION

H.I/1 cm=10

H.I= 10cm
