Question

The image of an object form by a mirror is real and inverted and is of magnification -1,if the image is at the distance of 30cm from the mirror.where is object placed?

Answer 1

TEMPE, Arizona—As a species of seeming feeble, naked apes, we humans are unlikely candidates for power in a natural world where dominant adaptations can boil down to speed, agility, jaws and claws. Why we rose to rule, while our hominin relatives died out, has long been a curiosity for scientists.

The study of our human nature encompasses a variety of fields ranging from anthropology, primatology, cognitive science and psychology to paleontology, archaeology, evolutionary biology and genetics.

Representatives of each of these disciplines gathered February 19-22 at a workshop, "Origins of Human Uniqueness and Behavioral Modernity," staged by Arizona State University's Origins Project to discuss recent advances in their respective fields.

Answer 2

Answer:

+ 30 cm

Explanation:

Given :

Magnification = - 1

Image distance = 30 cm

We know

m = - v / u

- 1 = 30 / u

u = - 30 cm

Now we have ,

1 / f = 1 / v + 1 / u

1 /  f = 1 / - 30 - 1 / 30

f = - 15 cm

When object moved 20 cm

u' = - 30 + 20 = - 10 cm

We have f = - 15 cm

We have to find new image distance v'

Again ,

1 / f = 1 / v' + 1 / u'

- 1 / 15 = 1 / v' - 1 / 10

1 / v' = 1 / 30

v' = 30.

Nature of image as :

Virtual

Erect

Magnified.
