A point source `S` is placed at distance of `15` cm from a converging lens of focal length `10` cm . Where should a (i) concave mirror (ii) convex mirror of focal length `12` cm be placed so that real image is formed on object itself.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`u=-15` cm ,`f=+10"cm" ,(1)/(v) - (1)/(u)= (1)/(f) implies (1)/(v)- (1)/((-15)) = (1)/(10) implies v =30 "cm"`
(i)`x= v +2f implies 30 + 3 xx 12 = 54 "cm" (ii) x=v-2f = 30-2xx 12 = 6"cm"`
