An object is placed in front of a small plane mirror M1 and a large convex mirror M2 of focal length f .The distance between O and M1 is x and the distance between M1 and M2 is y .The images of 'O' formed by M1 and M2 coincide . The magnitude of 'f' is
1) x-y                  2 )   x 2 - y 2 2 y                             3 )   x 2 + y 2 2 y                     4 )   x 2 + y 2 x + y

u=x+y v=x - y Using mirror formula, 1/f = 1/u + 1/v 1/f = 1/(x+y) + 1/(x-y) = (x+y-x+y)/(x^2 - y^2) = 2y / ( x^2 - y^2 ) 1/f = 2y / (x^2 - y^2) f =(x^2 - y^2)/2y

how did u get v as x-y
  • 9
V=x-y???
