To solve the problem step by step, we will follow the concepts of ray optics, particularly the mirror formula and the properties of mirrors. ### Step 1: Identify the given values - Object distance (u) = -15 cm (negative because the object is in front of the mirror) - Image distance (v) = +5 cm (positive because the image is formed on the opposite side of the mirror) ### Step 2: Use the mirror formula The mirror formula is given by: ...
