Convex mirror never forms a real image of a real
Focal length
object
x  object distance from focus.
2. (2) y  image distance from focus
When the object is at C, the image is formed at C. f  10  40

7. (3)
Concave mirror.
(u = 2f  v = 2f)
3. (2) m=1
(f = + 20)
Hence, concave mirror is not used.
