Answer:
The distance of the image from the mirror, v = -3 cm
Explanation:
Given data,
The object distance, u = 9 cm
The focal length of the convex mirror, f = - 4.5 cm
According to the mirror formula,
[tex]\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{v}+\frac{1}{u}[/tex]
∴ [tex]\frac{1}{v}=\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{u}[/tex]
[tex]v=\frac{uf}{u-f}[/tex]
Substituting the values,
[tex]v=\frac{(-4.5)\times9}{9+4.5}[/tex]
v = - 3 cm
Hence, the distance of the image from the mirror, v = -3 cm
