Question

An object is place at a distance of 5m from a convex mirror of focal length 10cm.Where is the image formed and what is its magnification?

Answer 1

Answer:

v = -10 cm, m = -2

Explanation:

u = -5 cm and f = 10 cm

1/f = 1/v + 1/u (mirror formula)

1/10 = 1/v - 1/5

1/v = 1/10 - 1/5

1/v = -1/10

v = -10 cm

m = -v/u

-(-10)/-5

-10/5

m = -2
