ANSWER:

Given:

  • Height of object (\sf H_o = 2cm
  • Distance of object from mirror (u) = 10cm
  • Height of image (\sf H_i = 4cm

To Find:

  • The type of mirror
  • The radius of curvature (r)

Solution:

We are given that,

\implies\sf Height\:of\: object (H_o)=2cm

And,

\implies\sf Height\:of\: image (H_i)=4cm

We know that,

\implies\sf Magnification=\dfrac{H_i}{H_o}

So,

\implies\sf Magnification=\dfrac{4\!\!\!/^{\:2}}{2\!\!\!/_{\:1}}

Hence,

\implies\sf Magnification=2 - - - -(1)

We are given that,

\implies\sf Distance\:of\: object (u)=10cm

We also know that,

\implies\sf Magnification=\dfrac{-v}{u}

So,

\implies\sf Magnification=\dfrac{-v}{-10}

From (1),

\implies\sf 2=\dfrac{v}{10}

\implies\sf v=20

So,

\implies\sf v=20 - - - -(2)

We know that, by Mirror Formula,

\implies\sf \dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{v}+\dfrac{1}{u}

Here, f is focal length, u is distance of object, and v is distance of image.

So,

\implies\sf \dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{20}+\dfrac{1}{-10}

\implies\sf \dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{20}+\dfrac{-1}{10}

\implies\sf \dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1-2}{20}

\implies\sf \dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{-1}{20}

Hence,

\implies\sf f=-20

We know that,

\implies\sf Radius\:of\: curvature =2f

So,

\implies\sf Radius\:of\: curvature =2(-20)

Hence,

\implies\sf Radius\:of\: curvature =-40cm

As the radius is in negative, the mirror is a concave mirror.

And, radius is 40cm.
