Worksheet On Mirror Formula
Q1. Find the focal length of a concave mirror that produces four times larger real image of an object held at
5cm from the mirror.
Q2. An object 4 cm in size is placed at a distance of 25 cm from a concave mirror of focal length 15 cm. Find
the position, nature and height of the image.
Q3. When an object is placed at a distance of 60 cm from a convex mirror, the magnification produced is 1/2.
Where should the object be place to get a magnification of 1/3?
Q4. An object 2 cm in size is placed 30 cm in front of a concave mirror of focal length 15 cm. At what distance
from the mirror should a screen be placed in order to obtain a sharp image? What will be the nature and the
size of the image formed? Draw a ray diagram to show the formation of the image in this case.
Q5. A converging mirror forms a real image of height 4 cm, of an object of height 1 cm placed 20 cm away
from the mirror. Calculate the image distance. What is the focal length of the mirror?
Q6. A spherical mirror produces a magnification of -1 on a screen placed at a distance of 50 cm from the
mirror.
a) Write the type of the mirror.
b) Find the distance of the image from the object.
c) What is the focal length of the mirror?
d) Draw the ray diagram to show the image formation in this case.
Q7. A concave mirror produces a three times magnified image on a screen. If the object is placed 20 cm in
front of the mirror, how far is the screen from the object?
Q8. A converging mirror of focal length 20cm forms an image which is two times the size of the object.
Calculate two possible distances of the object from the mirror.
Q9. An object, 4.0 cm in size, is placed at 25.0 cm in front of a concave mirror of focal length 15.0 cm. At
what distance from the mirror should a screen be placed in order to obtain a sharp image? Find the nature and
the size of the image.
Q10.A convex mirror used for rear-view on an automobile has a radius of curvature of 3.00 m. If a bus is
located at 5.00 m from this mirror find the position, nature and size of the image.
Q11. An object of size 7.0 cm is placed at 27 cm in front of a concave mirror of focal length 18 cm. At what
distance from the mirror should a screen be placed, so that a sharp focused image can be obtained? Find the
size and the nature of the image.
Q12. An object 5.0 cm in length is placed at a distance of 20 cm in front of a convex mirror of radius of
curvature 30 cm. Find the position of the image, its nature and size.
