Answer to Problem 23P
Solution:
Since then
Explanation of Solution
Given Info:
Let height of object be
Height of image
Object distance
Image distance
Let the focal length and radius of curvature of mirror be ‘f’ and ‘r’ respectively.
Formula Used:
(i)Apply focal length formula for mirror
(ii)Magnification of mirror
Here, all alphabets are in their usual meanings.
Calculation:
The magnification by using mirror equation:
First, we shall find the image distance ‘di’
Apply focal length formula for mirror
Apply magnification of mirror
Since then from equation (i)
Again, Since then from equation (i)
