Rays from Sun converge at a point `15 cm` in front of a concave mirror. Where should an object be placed so that size of its image is equal to the size of the object ?

A

` 15 cm` in front of the mirror

B

`30 cm` in front of the mirror

C

between `15 cm and 30 cm` in front of the mirror

D

more than `30 cm` in front of the mirror

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

As rays from the sun converge at `15 cm, :. f = 15 cm`.
Size of image = size of object, when object is placed to `R = 2f = 30 cm` in front of the mirror.
