An object is placed 20cm from a concave mirror of focal length 10cm. The linear magnification of the image produced is?

  • A.
    0
  • B.
    (frac{1}{2})
  • C.
    1
  • D.
    2
Correct Answer: Option C
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
