Vedclass · Answer

(C) The incident light rays are converging towards a point $12 \, cm$ behind the convex mirror. This point acts as a virtual object for the mirror.Since the image is formed at the same position as the virtual object,the light rays must be striking the mirror normally (along the radius of curvature).This implies that the virtual object is located at the center of curvature $(C)$ of the convex mirror.Therefore,the radius of curvature $R = 12 \, cm$.The focal length $f$ of the mirror is given by $f = \frac{R}{2}$.Substituting the value of $R$,we get $f = \frac{12 \, cm}{2} = 6 \, cm$.

$A$ convergent beam of light is incident on a convex mirror so as to converge to a distance $12 \, cm$ from the pole of the mirror. An inverted image of the same size is formed coincident with the virtual object. What is the focal length of the mirror? $(cm)$
