When an object is placed at a distance of $25 \; cm$ from a mirror,the magnification is $m_1$. The object is moved $15 \; cm$ away with respect to the earlier position,magnification becomes $m_2$. If $\frac{m_1}{m_2} = 4$,the focal length of the mirror is: (in $; cm$)

  • A
    $-10$
  • B
    $-30$
  • C
    $-15$
  • D
    $-20$

In an experiment to determine the focal length $(f)$ of a concave mirror by the $u-v$ method,a student places the object pin $A$ on the principal axis at a distance $x$ from the pole $P$. The student looks at the pin and its inverted image from a distance keeping his/her eye in line with $PA$. When the student shifts his/her eye towards left,the image appears to the right of the object pin. Then,
