Question
The image formed by a concave mirror is real, inverted and of the same size as the object. The position of the object must then be:
(a) at the focus
(b) between the centre of curvature and focus
(c) at the centre of curvature
(d) beyond the centre of curvature
Solution
At the centre of curvature
The reason being, the image formed by a concave mirror is real, inverted and of the same size as the object. The position of the object must then be at the centre of curvature.
