If image obtained from concave mirror of...

If image obtained from concave mirror of focal length f is `(1/n)^(th)` times of object, then find object distance.

A

`f/n`

B

fn

C

(n+1)f

D

(n-1)f

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, C

For concave mirror m = `(f)/(f-u)`
`therefore -1/n=(f)/(f-u)`
`(because` Image formed is small,hence real)
`therefore`u-f=nf
`therefore` u= nf+f
`therefore` u = (n+1)f
