Converging rays strike a spherical conve...

Converging rays strike a spherical convex mirror such that they can form the Image (in the absence of mirror) between pole and focus. Now what can you say about final image formed by mirror?

A

real

B

virtual

C

erect

D

inverted

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a.,c.

`(1)/(v)+(1)/(u)=(1)/(f)rArr (1)/(y)+(1)/(x)=(1)/(f)rArr y=(xf)/(x-f)`
Since `x lt f`, so y is negative and hence so image is real.
`m=-(v)/(u)=-(y)/(x)rarr` positive so image is erect.
