ICSE Class 10 Answered
A converging mirror forms a real image of height 4çm of an object of height 1cm placed 20cm away from the mirror find focal length and image distance

Expert Answer
we have mirror equation, (1/v) + (1/u) = 1/f .....................(1)
where v is mirror-to-image distance, u is mirror-to-object distance and f is focal length of mirror
magnification m = -v/u = -v/(-20) = -4 or v = -80 cm
hence focal lenth of mirror is obtained using eqn.(1), (1/80)+(1/20) = 1/f ; we get f = 16 cm
Hence focal length = 16 cm
image distance from mirror = 80 cm
