A particle is oscillating on the X-axis with
an amplitude 2 cm about the point
x
0=10 cm, with a frequency ω. A concave
mirror of focal length 5 cm is placed at the
origin (see figure).

As we learned

 

Mirror Formula -

\frac{1}{v}+\frac{1}{u}=\frac{1}{f}


 

- wherein

u= Object distance from pole of mirror.

v= Image distance from pole of mirror.

f= focal length of the mirror.

 

 For u = -10cm, f = -5cm

\frac{1}{v}=\frac{1}{8}-\frac{1}{u} = \frac{-1}{5} + \frac{1}{10} = \frac{-1}{10}cm

v = 10cm , u= -8cm & u = -12cm

u_{1}=-8cm

\frac{1}{v_{2}}= \frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{u_{2}}= \frac{-1}{5}+\frac{1}{12}= \frac{-7}{60} or v_{2} = \frac{-60}{7}cm

difference between v_{1} and v_{2}

= v_{2}-v_{1} = \frac{-60}{7}+\frac{40}{3} = \frac{-180+280}{21}

= \frac{100}{21}cm
