A

4 cm, real

B

4 cm, virtual

C

1.0 cm, real

D

None of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`h_(O) = 2 cm , u = -15 cm, ` f = -10 cm
Mirror formula, `(1)/(v) + (1)/(u) = (1)/(f)`
`rArr " "(1)/(v) = (1)/(f) - (1)/(u) = - (1)/(10) + (1)/(15) rArr v = - 30` cm
Image is real.
Magnification (m) ` = (-v)/(u) = (h_(1))/(h_(O)) rArr (- (-30))/(- 15) = (h_(l))/(h_(O))`
`" " rArr h_(l) = - 4 `cm
