An object of length 17 m is placed at a distance of 14 m the image is formed 14 m away from the mirror.
Find the focal length of the mirror, and magnificant of the image. Say wheather it is real or virtual image.

It is stated that,
The length of the object (O) = 17 m
The distance of the object (u) = 14 m
The distance of the formed image (v) = (14+14)m
= 28 m
Let, the magnificant of the image be, 'm'
The focal length be, 'f'
We know that,
Magnificant of the image = - v/u
= -28/14
= -2
The magnificant of the image is -2
As the magnificant of the image is negative so, its a real image.
We know that
1/ focal length = (1/distance of the object) + (1/distance of the formed image)
⇒ 1/f = (1/u) + (1/v)
⇒ 1/f = (1/14) + (1/28)
⇒ 1/f = (1+1)/28 [∵ The L.C.M. of 14 and 28 is 28]
⇒ 1/f = 2/28
⇒ 1/f = 1/28
⇒ f = 14 m
So, the foal length of the mirror is 14 m
