Question

ugu
10. A shop security mirror 5.0 m from certain items displayed in the shop produces one-tenth magnification
() What is the type of mirror ?
(6) What is the radius of curvature of the mirror ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

You need to be clear with two concepts in order to be able to solve the question:

1. Mirror Formula (with sign convention)

2. Magnification Formula

Here, it is given that object distance u = - 5m  = -500 cm

Magnification = 1/10

Find the value of v using the formula of magnification and then substitute the value of v and u in the mirror formula to find out the focal length.

Then, you can find radius of curvature as R = 2F.
