Question

Find the size ,natural and position of image formed when an object is placed at 1 cm is placed at distance of 15 cm from a converging mirror of focal length 10cm

Answer 1

Heya,

Your answer is☺☺

Object height (h) = 1cm

Object distance (u) = -15 cm [Object distance and focal length are taken negative in Concave mirror;New Cartesian Sign Convension]

Focal length (f) = -10 cm

We know, 1/v + 1/u = 1/f [Mirror formula]

Therefore, 1/v = 1/f - 1/u

1/v = 1/(-10) - 1/(-15)

1/v = 1/(-10) + 1/15 [(-) x (-) = (+)]

1/v = 5/(-150) [Cross-multiplying]

v = -150/5 = -30 cm

Image is -30 cm in front of mirror.

m = h'/h = -v/u [Formula of magnification]

Therefore,h' = -vh/u

h' = -(-30) x (1)/(-15)

h' = -2 cm

Image is real,inverted and enlarged.

Hope this helps
