A real object is placed in front of a convex mirror (fixed).The object is moving toward the mirror. If `v_(0)` is the speed of object and `v_(i)` is the speed of image, then

A

`v_(i) lt v_(0)` always

B

`v_(i) gt v_(0)` always

C

`v_(i) gt v_(0)` initially and then `v_(0) gt v_(i)`

D

`v_(i) lt v_(0)` initially and then `v_(i) gt v_(0)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

As object moves from infinity to the pole of convex mirror, image moves from focus to pole. So `v_(i) lt v_(0)` , always.

A real object is placed infront of a convex mirror (focal length f). It moves towards the mirror, the image also moves. If V_(i)= speed of image and V_(0)= speed of the object and u is the distance of object from mirror along principal axis, then

An object is placed in front of a convex mirror. Which one of the following statements is correct?

A linear object AB is placed along the axis of a concave mirror. This object is moving towards the mirror with speed U. The speed of the image of the point A is 4U and the speed of the image of B is alSO 4U btu in opposite direction. If the center of the line AB is at a distance L from the mirror then find out the length of the object.
