Vedclass · Answer

(B) The mirror formula is given by $\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{v} + \frac{1}{u}$,where $f$ is the focal length,$v$ is the image distance,and $u$ is the object distance.It relates the focal length of a spherical mirror to the object distance and the image distance.The relationship between the height of the image $(h')$ and the height of the object $(h)$ is defined by the magnification formula,which is $m = \frac{h'}{h} = -\frac{v}{u}$.Therefore,the statement is false.

The mirror formula describes the relationship between the height of the image and the height of the object.
