An object is placed at a distance of 12 ...

An object is placed at a distance of 12 cm in front of a concave mirror. It forms a real image four times larger than the object. Calculate the distance of the image from the mirror.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Here, `u = -12 cm, m = -4,v=?`
As `m= (-v)/(u)` , `- 4= (-v)/(-12),v= -48cm` .
