Question

In the shown figure M subscript 1 end subscript and M subscript 2 end subscript are two concave mirrors of the same focal length 10 cm. AB and CD are their principal axes respectively. A point object O is kept on the line AB at a distance 15 cm from M subscript 1 end subscript . The distance between the mirrors is 20 cm. Considering two successive reflections first on M1 and then on M subscript 2 end subscript . The distance of final image from the line AB is

  1. 3 cm    
  2. 1.5 cm    
  3. 4.5 cm    
  4. 1 cm    

The correct answer is: 1.5 cm


    For M1
