The focal length of a concave mirror is 30 cm. If the object is at 20 cm. Determine the position andnature of object.

Answer»

Given,

u=30 cm

f=20 cm

v=?

Here,

1/u + 1/v = 1/f

1/30 + 1/v = 1/20

1/v = 1/20 - 1/30

1/v = 1/60

v= 60 cm

( u, v, f are always in ‘+’ in concave.

But ‘-’ in convex)

Now,

(Since image is formed on the same side of the object , the image is real)

v-u = 60 - 30 = 30 cm

So the distance between object and image is 30 cm.
