An object is placed 20cm from a concave mirror of focal length 10cm. The linear magnification of the image produced is?
0
\(\frac{1}{2}\)
1
2

Explanation

\(\frac{I}{V}\) = \(\frac{1}{f}\) – \(\frac{1}{u}\)

\(\frac{I}{V}\) = \(\frac{1}{10}\) – \(\frac{1}{20}\)

  = \(\frac{1}{20}\) V

  V = 20cm.

  M = \(\frac{V}{U}\)

  = \(\frac{20}{20}\)

  = 1
