The image distance from the mirror.
Answer to Problem 78A
At a distance of
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The radius of curvature of the concave mirror,
The object distance from the mirror,
Formula used:
The relation between the radius of curvature of mirror
Mirror equation,
Where,
Calculation:
Then, the focal length of the concave mirror will be,
Using the given values in Mirror equation, the image distance will be,
Negative sign denotes that the image is formed behind the mirror.
Conclusion:
Therefore, the image is located at a distance of
