Answer:
Correct answer would be: position of image = 120 cm, height of image = 30 cm, nature of image = Virtual, Erect and Enlarged.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Height of object = 6 cm
Distance of object(u) = 24 cm from the mirror
Focal Length of concave mirror(f) = 30 cm.
To find: Position(v) , Nature and Height of image.
Now, the object's height, distance from mirror(u) and focal length(f) is given. Apart from it, we are also told that the mirror is a concave mirror.
As we know, for a concave mirror, value of u and f are always negative. Hence, u = -24 cm and f = -30 cm.
Now, we know from the formula for spherical mirror:
1/f = 1/u+1/v
where, v is the position of image.
Hence, putting values given in the question with the applied signs:
-1/30 = -1/24 + 1/v
1/v = -1/30 + 1/24
1/v = (5-4)/120
1/v = 1/120
Therefore, v = 120 cm.
As the value of v is positive, it proves that image is Virtual and Erect.
Now, for magnification, we know the formula:
Magnification = -v/u = height of image / height of object
Hence, putting values:
(-120/-24) = Hₓ / 6
where, Hₓ = height of image. Hence,
5 = Hₓ / 6
Hₓ = 30 cm
Therefore, Height of image is 30 cm.
