The focal length of a concave mirror is 50cm. Where an object be placed so that its image is two times and inverted

A

75 cm

B

60 cm

C

125 cm

D

50 cm

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

In case of concave mirror, `m=-2`
Also, `" " m=(f)/(f-u)`
`rArr " " -2=(-50)/(-50-u)`
`therefore` Distance of the object from the mirrot `u=-75 cm`
