The magnification of the image of an object placed in front of a convex mirror is (frac{1}{3}). If the radius of curvature of the mirror is 24cm, what is the distance between its object and its image?
-
A.
8cm -
B.
16cm -
C.
24cm -
D.
32cm
Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation
F = uv ; v = 1u
12 = (frac{v + 3v}{v + 3v})
v = 16cm, u = 48cm
distance between U and V
= 48 – 16 =32cm
