Question

Where should an object be placed in front of the concave mirror so as to obtain its virtual, erect and magnified image?

Solution

The object should be placed within the focus (between the pole and the focus) and in front of the concave mirror in order to obtain a virtual, erect and magnified image.

What is meant by magnification? Write its expression. What is its sign for real image and virtual image?


Assertion: The focal length of the mirror is /and the distance of the object from the focus is V then the magnification of the mirror will be `("f"/"f−u")`

Reason: Magnification = `"image distance"/ "object distance"` = `(-"v"/"u")`
