An object is placed at a distance of 6 cm from a convex mirror of focal length 12 cm. Find the position and nature of the image.
Object distance = 6 cm
Focal length = 12 cm
Uisng mirror formula,
Image distance = 4 cm behind the mirror
The natue of the image is Virtual and erect
Magnification , m = v/u = 4/6 = 0.66 ,
Hence the image formed is diminished.
