Question 13

The erect image formed by a concave mirror is of size double the size of object. How are u and v related?

Answer

Magnification (m) = - image distance (v)object distance (u)\dfrac{\text {image distance (v)}}{\text{object distance (u)}}

Given,

2 = - vu\dfrac{\text v}{\text u}

Hence, v = -2u
