a) A concave mirror produces a magnification of +5. What should be the position of the object?
b) A 2.0 cm tall object is placed perpendicular to the principal axis of a convex mirror of
focal length 10 cm. The distance of the object from the lens is 15 cm. Find the
magnification of the image formed.
Solution:
(a) Magnification of + 5 means that image is large and erect. So object is placed between focus and pole.
The dotted line represents the image.
(b)
