An object is placed at a distance of 10cm from a convex mirror of focal length 15cm.
We have to find the position and nature of the image.
From above data we have; image distance (u) is -10 cm and focal length (f) is 15 cm.
Using Mirror Formula:
1/f = 1/v + 1/u
Substitute the known values,
→ 1/15 = 1/v - 1/10
→ 1/v = 1/15 + 1/10
→ 1/v = 1/5(1/3 + 1/2)
→ 1/v = 1/5(5/6)
→ 1/v = 1/6
→ v = 6
Therefore, the image distance from the mirror is 6 cm.
Using Magnification formula:
m = -v/u
Substitute the values,
→ m = -6/(-10)
→ m = 0.6
Nature of the image: Erect, diminished and image will formed beyond the mirror.
