INTEGER TYPE :
114.. A balloon is rising up along the axis of a stationary concave mirror of radius of
curvature 20 m. A ball is dropped from the balloon at a height 15 m from the mirror
when the balloon has velocity 2 m/s. Find speed of the image of the ball formed by
concave mirror after 0.4 sec from the instant at which it was dropped (in m/s)
[g = 10 m/s2]

115. A thief is running away in a car with velocity of 20m/s. A police jeep is following
him, which is sight by thief in his rear view mirror which is a convex mirror of focal
length 10m. He observes that the image of jeep is moving towards him with a velocity
of 1 cm/s. If the magnification of the mirror for the jeep at that time is 1/10. If the
actual speed of the jeep is 3x m/s then, what is the value of x

116.. A point object at 15 cm from a concave mirror of radius of curvature 20 cm as made
to oscillate along the principal axis with amplitude 2mm. What is the amplitude of
image ( in mm)
