To solve the problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the given information - We have a concave mirror with a focal length (f) of -15 cm (negative because it's a concave mirror). - The first object (O1) is placed at a distance (u1) of -45 cm from the mirror. - The second object (O2) is half the size of O1. ### Step 2: Use the mirror formula to find the image distance (v1) for the first object ...
