Answer» Answer: focal length = f = 10 cm
object distance = U = 25 cm image distance = V = ? Explanation: Mirror formula,
1/f=1/v+1/u 1/v=1/f+1/u Apply sign convention 1/v=1/f+(-1/u) 1/v=1/f-1/u 1/v=1/10-1/25 1/v=(10-25)/(10*25) v=(-15)/(10*25) v=-15/250=-3/50 -3/50=-0.06 v=0.06cm At the distance of 0.06 cm from the the mirror , the screen should be placed in order to obtain short image Highly diminished,inverted |
