An infinitely long rod lies along the axis of a concave mirror of focal lengthf. The near end of the rod is at a distanceu>ffrom the mirror. Its image will have a length

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

1 v + 1 u = 1 f ⇒ let v 1 = distance of near end of image

1 v 1 + 1 - u = 1 - f ⇒ 1 v 1 = 1 u + 1 - f ⇒ 1 v 1 = f - u u f

v 1 = u f f - u

⇒1v2+1∞=1-f⇒v2=-f(v2=the distance of last end of image )

Length of Image⇒v1-v2=uff-u--f⇒v1-v2=uf-uf+f2u-f

v 1 - v 2 = f 2 u - f
