उत्तर
If an object is placed at the centre of curvature of a concave mirror, the size of the image is equal to the size of the object.

Given,
focal length = 25 cm
As, center of curvature = 2 × focal length
Therefore,
center of curvature
= 2 × 25
= 50 cm
Hence, the object should be placed at 50 cm.
