A point object O is placed on the axis of a concave mirror of radius of curvature 6 cm. Rays of light coming from O after reflection from concave mirror M are incident on a small mirror M. After reflection from M the reflected rays meet at the pole P of the concave mirror. If OP = 9cm, PM = 3 cm, then determine the nature of the mirror M and its focal length.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
convex mirror M ; focal length = 3 cm
