Question

What is sign convention for spherical mirrors

Answer 1

take the mirror as a coordinate plane where left is negative and right is positive and up is positve and down is negative! By this you can determine the sign convention of object distance image distance height of the object and magnification

Answer 2

$\huge\sf{Here\:is\:your\:Answer:-}$

Sign Convention for Reflaction by Spherical Mirrors use the pole of the mirror as Origin. The principal axis of the mirror is taken as the x-axis of the coordinate system.

$\underline{The\: convention \:are \:as\: follows:-}$

✔️ The object is always placed to the left of the mirror.

✔️ All distance parallel to the principal axis are measured from the pole of the mirror.

✔️ All the distance measured to the right of the orgin are taken as positive while those measured to the left of the origin is taken as negative.

✔️ Distances measured perpendicular to and above the principal axis are taken as positive.

✔️ Distance measured perpendicular to and below the principal axis are taken as negative.
