A man uses a concave mirror for shaving. He keeps his face at a distance of 25 cm from the mirror and gets an image which is 1.4 times enlarged. Find the focal length of the mirror.

उत्तर
Given,
Distance of the man's face (here, taken as object), u = −25 cm
According to the question, magnification, m = 1.4
\[m = \frac{A'B'}{AB} = - \frac{v}{u}\]
\[ \Rightarrow 1 . 4 = - \frac{(v)}{- 25}\]
\[\Rightarrow\frac{14}{10}=\frac{v}{25}\]
\[\Rightarrow v=\frac{25 \times 14}{10}=35 \text{ cm }\]
Using equation of mirror, we get:
\[\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{v} + \frac{1}{u}\]
`⇒ 1/f = 1/35 - 1/25`
\[= \frac{5 - 7}{175} = - \frac{2}{175}\]
⇒ f = −87.5
Hence, the required focal length of the concave mirror is 87.5 cm.

(i) Consider a thin lens placed between a source (S) and an observer (O) (Figure). Let the thickness of the lens vary as `w(b) = w_0 - b^2/α`, where b is the verticle distance from the pole. `w_0` is a constant.
