Expert Answer
(a) The image formed in front of the concave mirror is real, so m is negative,
m = -3, u = -10 cm
As m = -v/u or -3 = -v/-10
v = -30 cm
By mirror formula,
1/f = 1/v + 1/u = 1/-30 + 1/-10 = -4/30
or f = -30/4 = -7.5 cm
(b) A lens is a piece of transparent glass bound by two spherical surfaces.
