Question #110015

A concave mirror has a focal length of 0.25 m. If an object produces a virtual image 0.04 m from the mirror, where is it located?

Expert's answer

using mirror's formula

1f=1u+1v\frac1f=\frac1u+\frac1v


10.25=1u+10.041u=29\frac{1}{-0.25}=\frac1u+\frac1{0.04}\\\frac1u=-29


u=129mu=-\frac{1}{29}m


u=-0.034 m
