Question
In a concave mirror experiment, an object is placed at a distance x1 from the focus and the image is formed at a distance x2 from the focus. The focal length of the mirror would be
Answer: Option B
:
B
Given u=(f+x1) and v=(f+x2)
The focal length f=uvu+v=(f+x1)(f+x2)(f+x1)+(f+x2)
On solving, we get f2=x1x2 or f=√x1x2
