Optics Question 791

Question: An object is moving with speed v0 towards a spherical mirror with radius of curvature R, along the central axis of the mirror. The speed of the image with respect to the mirror is (U is the distance of the object from mirror at any given time

Options:

A) +(RU2R)v02

B) (RR2U)2v0

C) (R2U2R)2v0

D) +(R2U2)v02

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

[b] For concave mirror 2R=1v+1u or 2R=1v+1u

1v=1U2R=R2UUR or v=[RUR2U]

In spherical mirror, image velocity vt=[v2u2]v0=[RUR2U]2v0U2=[RR2U]2v0
