Explanation:
please thank my answers please.......
Answer:
At the distance of 54cm we would obtain the sharp image . The size of the image would be 14 cm and it would be real and inverted
Explanation:
Given in the question:
size of the object :h = 7cm,
distance from mirror : u = -27cm,
and the focal length: f = -18cm
we have to find v (distance from mirror to obtain sharp image)
and h' (size) and nature of the image
Solution–
We know that,
1/v + 1/u = 1/f
therefore, 1/v + 1/-27 = 1/-18
therefore, 1/v = 1/-18 + 1/27
, 1/v = -1/54
therefore, v = 54cm ( distance from the object at which
sharp image is obtained )
To find the height of the image or h' —
We know that, m= h'/h = -v/u,
therefore, h'/7 = - (-54/-27)
; h'/7 = -2
; h' = -14cm
As the height came is negative , therefore, the image
formed must be real and inverted.
