An object is placed 25cm in front of a convex mirror has its image formed 5cm behind the mirror. what is the focal length of the convex mirror
Object distance (u) = -25 cm (negative because the object is in front of the mirror)
Image distance (v) = +5 cm (positive because the image is behind the convex mirror)
Using \(\frac{1}{f}\) = \(\frac{1}{u}\) + \(\frac{1}{v}\)
\(\frac{1}{f}\) = \(\frac{1}{-25}\) + \(\frac{1}{5}\)
f = \(\frac{25}{4}\) = 6.250cm.
There is an explanation video available below.
