An object is moving towards a convex mirror with a constant velocity. P is the pole of mirror.

A

magnification of the image increases with time.

B

magnificatin of the image decreases with time

C

velocity of the image increases with time

D

velocity of the image decreases with time

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a.,c.

`(1)/(y)+(1)/(-x)=(1)/(f)rArr(1)/(y)=(1)/(x)+(1)/(f)rArr y=(xf)/(x+f)`
`rArr (y)/(x)=(f)/(x+f)rArr ` as x decreases, so magnification increases.
Now, `(dy)/(dt)=((y)/(x))^(2)(dx)/(dt)rArrv=-((y)/(x))^(2)u`
As `(y)/(x)` increase, so v increases.
