A concave mirror of focal length/produces a real image n times the size of the object. What is the distance of the object from the mirror ?

Answer»

Solution :As IMAGE is real, it will be inverted one and HENCE magnification `m=-v/U = -n RARR v = mu`
So, from mirror formula `1/v + 1/u = 1/f`, we have
`1/(mu) + 1/u =1/(-f) rArr (1+n)/(nu) = -1/f rArr u=-((n+1)/n)f`
THUS, object is in front of mirror at a distance `((n+1)/n)f`
