Question

An object is placed at a distance of 10cm in front of concave mirror of focal length 20cm. The image produced is *

Answer 1

Answer:

Given:

Focal length of concave mirror, f = -20 cm

Distance of object from the mirror, u = -10 cm

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

or, 1/v = 1/f - 1/u

or, 1/v = 1/-20 - 1/-10

or, 1/v = -1/20 + 1/10 = 1/20

or, v = +20cm

hence, image position is the 20cm right side from the pole of the concave mirror as shown in the diagram. The image is straight and bigger than the object.

Answer 2

Answer:

the image will form at right side
