Since it is a concave mirror,f=10cm
height of object=2 cm
height of image =6 cm. we are required to find image distance,u.
magnification,m=height of image÷height of object
= 6/2=3
m=f÷f-u(from mirror formula and magnification formula..
3=10÷10-u
3(10-u)=10
30-3u=10
-3u=10-30
-3u=-20
-u=-20/3cm
u=20/3 cm..
