Question

an object is kept at a distance of 5 cm in front of convex mirror of focal length 10 cm calculate the position and nature of the image formed​

Answer 1

Explanation:

U = - 5

v = ?

f = 10

use the formula 1/v +1/u = 1/f

magnification = -v/u

Image formed is virtual

Answer 2

Given

u= -5 cm,

f = 10 cm,

We need to find

v = ????

By Mirror formula

1/v + 1/u = 1/f

1/v = 1/f - 1/u

Using values,

=> 1/v = 1/10 -1/(-5)

=> 1/v = e/10

=> v= 3:33 cm

or

v = 10/3

v = 3.333 cm

Therefore,

Nature of image : Virtual and erect.
