JEE Main & Advanced Physics Ray Optics Sample Paper Topic Test - Reflection of Light

  • question_answer
    Find the distance between the object and its doubly magnified real image by a concave mirror of focal length \[f\].

    A) \[2f\]

    B) \[\frac{3f}{2}\]

    C) \[\frac{5f}{2}\]

    D) \[3f\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b] 
    \[\frac{m=-\left( \frac{v}{u} \right)\Rightarrow \,\,\,-2=\frac{v}{u}}{2}\]
    [\[-ve\] magnification because image is real]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[v=2u\]
    From mirror formula, \[\left( \frac{1}{v} \right)+\left( \frac{1}{u} \right)=\frac{1}{f}\]    \[\Rightarrow \]  \[\left( \frac{1}{2u} \right)+\left( \frac{1}{u} \right)=\left( \frac{1}{f} \right)\]  \[\Rightarrow \]  \[\frac{3}{2u}=\frac{1}{f}\,\,\Rightarrow \,u=\frac{3f}{2}\]
    [a] Only \[{{M}_{1}}\] is effective in making image since light rays will not fall on \[{{M}_{2}}\].
