Image of an object approaching a convex mirror of radius of curvature 20m slong its optical axis is observed to move from `(25)/(3)`m to `(50)/(7)`m in 30 seconds. What is the speed of the object in km per hour?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
3

For `v_(1)=50//7m, u_(1)=-25m, v_(2)=25//3m, n_(2)=-50m`
Speed of object `=(25)/(30)xx(18)/(3)=3kmh^(-1)`
