Question

We wish to obtain an erect image of an object, using a concave mirror of focal
length 15 cm. What should be the range of distance of the object from the mirror
What is the nature of the image? Is the image larger or smaller than the objects
Draw a ray diagram to show the image formation in this case.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

ANSWER

Object distance should be less than the focal length for the formation of an erect image. Hence, the range of distance of object from the mirror should be less than 15 cm i.e. from 0 to 15 cm in the front of mirror from the pole. The nature of image so formed will be virtual and erect. The size of the image will be larger than object. Ray diagram:

Answer 2

Range of the distance of the object = 0 to 15 cm from the pole of the mirror.

Nature of the image = virtual, erect, and larger than the object.
