If a virtual image is formed along the principal axis 10 cm from a concave mirror with the focal length 15 cm what is the object distance from the mirror?

Given f = 15 cm. Magnification = 3. So the ie v/u = 3. So v = 3u
Using lens formula, 1/f = 1/v - 1/u
Now u = -u and v = -3u and f = 15
Plug these.
1/15 = -1/3u + 1/u
Hence u = 10 cm.
The object is to be placed at a distance of 10 cm from the lens.

Using
f = (uv) / (u+v)
Where u = object distance
v =image distance
f = focal lenght

How is the image formed by a concave lens similar to the image formed by a convex mirror?
In a concave lens the object always forms a virtual image. The convex lens also forms a virtual image.
Which lens always forms a diminished image?
concave lens formed virtual,erect and diminished image irrespective to the distance between the object and lens.
Is image formed by concave virtual and erect?
It is only erect and virtual when it is placed between E and F.
Can you Describe the images formed in a concave mirror?
The concave mirror focusses images to its focal point. So the images formed are real inverted and increases in size as the distance between the aperture and the object decreases. When the object is placed between the focus and the aperture the image formed is virtual erect and magnified.
Which type of image formed by concave mirror?
A concave mirror forms a virtual, magnified, right side up image.
Is a virtual and inverted image formed by a concave mirror?
Your right! You see technically we see up side down but with the light we see right side up so what that means is yes it is upside down. Well, since the brain doesn't turn it "right side up" it could be either way that you look at it.
What kind of image is formed by a concave image?
image formed by the concave lens will be erect , virtual and smaller than the size of object.

What is the property of image formed by concave lens?
Image formed by a concave lens or a diverging lens is virtual,upright and smaller than the object.It is used by short sighted people.
What is the only type of image that can be formed by both a concave lens and a convex lens?
Virtual image
Describe the images formed in a concave mirror and in a convex mirror?
Here is a description of image formation in a concave mirror: if the object is beyond the center of curvature (F), the image formed is real and upside down; if the object is very near to the concave mirror, the image forms behind the mirror. It is virtual, upright, and bigger in size. Here is a description of image formation in a convex mirror: a convex mirror always produces a virtual, upright, and smaller image of the object at any distance in front of it. The image is located behind the mirror.
What is the difference between the virtual image formed by a convex lens and a concave lens?
The difference is that when virtual image is formed by the concave mirror...it is larger than its original size..but when it is formed by the convex mirror..it is smaller than the original size....
When a small object is placed between a concave mirror and its focal point. what is the type and orientation of the image formed?
erect, magnified, and virtual
