Answer:

radius of the curvature of the mirror is defined by the radius of the sphere from which the mirror was cut from. Therefore the radius of curvature of a plane mirror is infinite in length

Radius of curvature (R) = 20 cm

Radius of curvature of a spherical mirror = 2 X Focal length (f)

R= 2f

f= R/2

f = 20 / 2

f = 10

Hence, the focal length of the given spherical mirror is 10 cm
