Question 1 Report

The magnification of the image of an object placed in front of a convex mirror is \( \frac{1}{3} \). If the radius of curvature of the mirror is 24cm, what is the distance between its object and its image?

Answer Details
F = uv ; v = 1u

12 =  v + 3 v v + 3 v

v = 16cm, u = 48cm

distance between U and V

= 48 - 16 =32cm
