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.
(a) Write the type of mirror he should use.
(b) Find the linear magnification of the image produced.
© What is the distance between the object and its image? .
(d) Draw a ray diagram to show the image formation in this case.
(a) Concave mirror.
(b) Linear magnification is given by
m= v/u= -60/-15= -4
© 60-15= 45cm.
(d) The diagram is drawn:
