The image of an object formed by a mirror is real, inverted, and is of magnification -1 If the image is at a distance of 40 cm from the mirror, where is the object placed? Where would the image be if the object is moved 20 cm towards the mirror? state reasons also draw ray diagram for the new position of the objects to justify your answer.
As per the statement, the image is real and inverted and magnification -1. means image is of the same size of objects is placed at the center of curvature of the mirror, so the distance of the object to mirror will be also at a distance of 40 cm
If the object is moved 20 cm towards the mirror the object is placed at F and the image is formed at infinity.
The newly formed image is real, inverted, and highly enlarged.
