The reflecting surfaces of a concave mir...

The reflecting surfaces of a concave mirror and a convex mirror are separated by a distance of 35 cm. The radius of curvature of the tow mirrors are 15 cm and 25 cm respectively. An object of height 3 cm is placed vertically on the principal axis 10 cm from the concave mirror. If the first reflection takes place in the concave mirror and then in the convex mirror, determine the position , nature and size of the final image formed.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
behind the convex mirror at a distance of 3.57 cm; the image will be inverted, virtual and 6.43 cm in height
