Question

An object of height 5 cm is placed in midway between a concave mirror of radius of curvature 30 cm and a convex mirror of radius of curvature 30 cm. The mirrors are placed opposite to each other and are 60 cm apart. The position of the image formed by reflection at convex mirror is.

Solution

Correct option is

10 cm

 

Object place at centre of curvature for concave image will form at object it self.    

For convex mirror u = –30 cm  

                              f = –15 cm

Use,           

                      

                            v = 10 cm.

A thin flat glass plate is placed in front of a convex mirror. At what distance b from the plate should a point source of light S be placed so that its image produced by the rays reflected from the front surface of the plate coincides with the image formed by the rays reflected from the mirror? The focal length of the mirror is f = 20 cm and the distance from the plate to the mirror a = 5 cm. How can the coincidence of the images be established by direct observation
