An object `1cm` tall is placed `4cm` in front of a mirror. In order to produce an upright image of `3cm` height one needs a

A

Convex mirror or radius of curvature `12cm`

B

Concave mirror of radius of curvature `12cm`

C

Concave mirror of radius of curvature `4 cm`

D

Plane mirror of height `12 cm`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Erect and enlarged image can produced by concave mirrorr.
`(I)/(O)=(f)/(f-u)implies(+3)/(+1)=(f)/(f-(-4))impliesf=-6cm`
`impliesR=2f=-12cm`
