A student wants to project the image of a candle flame on a screen 60 cm in front of a mirror by keeping the flame at a distance of 15 cm from its pole.
- Write the type of mirror he should use.
- Find the linear magnification of the image produced
- What is the distance between the object and its image?
- Draw a ray diagram to show the image formation in this case?
1.He should use a concave mirror, as it forms a real image on the same side of the mirror.
2.Object distance, u = -15 cm
Image distance, v = - 60 cm
Magnification,
The minus sign in magnification shows that the image formed is real and it
3.The image is formed at a distance of 45 cm from the object.
4 
In this case, the image is formed beyond the centre of curvature. This image.
