Answer:
here is ur answer hope it is helpful for u
Concept:
Image from mirror 1 will become object for mirror 2 and the direction of incident light will be positive.
Given:
Focal length of mirror 1 is 20 cm
Focal length of mirror 2 is 10 cm
Object is at 30 cm from mirror 1
Distance between mirror 1 and mirror 2 is 45 cm
Mirror 1 is concave mirror
Mirror 2 is convex mirror
Find:
Position of final image.
Solution:
Assuming the direction of incident light to be positive.
For first reflection from mirror 1
Applying mirror formula
u1 = -30 cm
f1 = -20 cm
1/f1 = 1/u1 + 1/v1
1/v1 = 1/f1 - 1/u1
1/v1 = 1/-20 - 1/-30
1/v1 = 1/-60
v1 = -60 cm
Image will form at 60 cm left to mirror 1 and at 15 cm left to mirror 2
Image from mirror 1 will now act as object for mirror 2
For second reflection from mirror 2
u2 = +15 cm
f2 = +10 cm
Applying mirror formula
1/f2 = 1/u2 + 1/v2
1/v2 = 1/f2 - 1/u2
1/v2 = 1/10 - 1/15
1/v2 = 1/30
v2 = + 30 cm
Hence, the image will form at 30 cm left to mirror 2.
