The linear magnification produced by a spherical mirror is +1/3. Analysing this value, state the 1) type of mirror and 2) position of the object with respect to the pole of the mirror. 3) Draw any diagram to justify your answer. 4) two uses of this mirror
Answers
Answer:
A convex mirror always forms an erect image . So, it cannot be a convex mirror .
As , the linear magnification = -1/3
1) The type of mirror is concave mirror .
2) When the object is placed beyond the centre of curvature , the image formed is between the focus and centre of curvature .
The Ray Diagram is shown in picture -
It is clearly visible that -
AB is the object .
C``D`` is the diminished and inverted image .
So, the linear magnification of the image is -1/3 .
The - sign indicates an inverted image .
The value less than 1 indicates a diminished image .
Explanation:
Answer:
The type of mirror is a concave mirror. 2) When the object is placed beyond the centre of curvature, the image formed is between the focus and centre of curvature. AB is the object.
