The origin of x and y coordinates is the pole of a concave mirror of focal length 20 cm. The x- axis is
the optical aixs with x > 0 being the real side of mirror. A point object at the point (25 cm, 1 cm) is
moving with a velocity 10 cm/s in positive x – direction. The velocity of the image in cm/s is
approximately

Given,
Focal length,

Object distance,
u
=

cm
Initial height,
h

cm/sec
If
v
is the image distance, then
1
