Answer:
Step 1: Calculate the magnification of the image:
Magnification = Image distance/Object distance
Magnification = 6 cm/x cm
12 = 6 cm/x cm
x cm = 6 cm/12
x cm = 0.5 cm
Step 2: Calculate the distance of the insect from the mirror:
Object distance = Image distance/Magnification
Object distance = 6 cm/12
Object distance = 0.5 cm
An Insect is magnified 12 times by a concave mirror. If the image is real, inverted and 6 cm away from the mirror, how far away is the insect? I need help in steps, when I tried the question I got a wrong answer
