A spherical mirror forms a real image three times the linear size of the object. If the distance between the object and the image is 80 cm, the focal length of the mirror is

Choose the correct alternative corresponding to the object distance 'u', image distance 'v' and the focal length 'F' of a converging lens from the following. (i) The average speed of the image as the object moves with uniform speed from distance (3F)/(4) to (F)/(2) is greater than the average speed of the image as the object moves with same speed from distance (F)/(2) to (F)/(4) (ii) The minium distance between a real object and its real image in case of a converging lens is 4F where F is its focal length.
