Siddharth wanted to see his inverted image in a plane mirror. So, he stood between a concave mirror and a plane mirror facing each other as shown in the figure. Knowing the focal length of the concave mirror, he found the distance between him and his inverted virtual image, formed in the plane mirror. What is his answer?

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to determine the distance between Siddharth and his inverted virtual image formed in the plane mirror after the concave mirror has created an image of him. We will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the Focal Length and Object Distance - The focal length \( f \) of the concave mirror is given as \( -2 \) meters (negative because it is a concave mirror). - The object distance \( u \) (the distance from Siddharth to the concave mirror) is given as \( -3 \) meters (also negative, as per the sign convention). ### Step 2: Use the Mirror Formula The mirror formula is given by: ...
