Answer:
Image distance, v = +24 cm
Explanation:
It is given that,
Height of the object, h = 5 cm
Object distance, u = -12 cm
Focal length of the concave mirror, f = -24 cm
Let v is the image distance. Using the mirror's formula of the mirror to find it as :
[tex]\dfrac{1}{v}+\dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{1}{f}[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{f}-\dfrac{1}{u}[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{(-24)}-\dfrac{1}{(-12)}[/tex]
v = +24 cm
So, the distance between the image and the mirror is 24 cm. Hence, this is the required solution.
