Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to find the position, magnification, and nature of the image formed by a convex mirror when an object is placed at a distance of 8 cm from the mirror. The radius of curvature of the convex mirror is given as 24 cm. ### Step 1: Determine the Focal Length The focal length (F) of a convex mirror is given by the formula: \[ F = \frac{R}{2} \] where R is the radius of curvature. Since the radius of curvature is positive for a convex mirror, we have: \[ R = +24 \, \text{cm} \] Thus, ...
