To solve the problem step by step, we will follow these instructions: ### Step 1: Understand the Setup We have a concave mirror with a focal length (f) of 10 cm. The rod of length 10 cm is placed such that one end (P) is 20 cm away from the mirror's pole (P). The other end (Q) of the rod will be 10 cm further away from P, making it 30 cm from the pole. **Hint:** Visualize the setup by drawing a diagram of the concave mirror, the focal point, and the rod. ### Step 2: Identify the Object Positions ...
