Answer» e is your answer if you love me answer please don't forget to meet me BRAINLIEST and you follow meAs the image is real the mirror has to be CONCAVE. Let its focal length be f. u and v both have to be negative according to the COORDINATE system sign CONVENTION. Also MOD(v) = (1/5)*mod(u). We have As the image is real the mirror has to be concave. Let its focal length be f. u and v both have to be negative according to the coordinate system sign convention. Also mod(v) = (1/5)*mod(u). We have 1/v + 1/u = 1/f or As the image is real the mirror has to be concave. Let its focal length be f. u and v both have to be negative according to the coordinate system sign convention. Also mod(v) = (1/5)*mod(u). We have 1/v + 1/u = 1/f or = -1/18 -1/(5*18) = -6/90 = 1/f or f = -15 cm |
