solve question 9 and 10
Answers
Here's your answer...
9 . GIVEN ,
Height object (ho) = 2.5 cm
Object dist. ( u ) = -25 cm
Focal length (f) =-20cm v=?
therefore , 1/f = 1/u+1/v
1/v = 1/u-1/f
1/v = 1/-25+1/-20
= (-20)+(-25)/500
= 45/500
= 1/11.1
therefore , v=11.1 cm
MAGNIFICATION = height of image/height of object = -v/u
=hi/2.5=-11.1/-25
cross multiplication ...
27.75 = hi*25
hi = 1.1 cm
therefore ... Image is virtual , erect and diminished ...
10. GIVEN ,
U = -20 cm
V = - 15 cm
f= ?
1/f = 1/u+1/v
= 1/-15 + 1/-20
= (-15)+(-20)/-15*-20
= -35/300
= -8.57 cm
Since focal length is -ve ..... the mirror is concave .
