A point object is located at a distance 15cm from the pole of a concave mirror of focal length 10cm on its principal axis is moving with a velocity (8
+ 11
)cm/s and velocity of mirror is 4
+ 2
cm/s. If
is the velocity of image, then value of |
| is .........×10 cm/s.

CHECK THE SOLUTION.
Ans. 2
Sol.
=
+ 
=
+ 
v = + 30
m = –
= –
= –2
= m × 
= (–2) × (9) = –18

v I = v IM + v M
v I = –18
+ 2
= – 16 
in vertical direction

= –m 2 × 

= – 4 × (– 4)
v IM =
= + 16
vI = –16
+ 4
= –12 
v =
=
= 20cm/s
