Since : first image moves towards convex mirror so positive. So must be negative i.e. second image also
dt dt
moves towards convex mirror.
5. The distance of an object from the focus of a convex mirror of radius of curvature 'a' is 'b'. Then the distance of the
image from the focus is :
(A) b2 / 4a (B) a / b2 (C*) a2 / 4b (D) 4b/ a2

6. I is the image of a point object O formed by spherical mirror, then which of the following statement is incorrect :
(A) If O and I are on same side of the principal axis, then they have to be on opposite sides of the mirror.
(B) If O and I are on opposite sides of the principal axis, then they have to be on same side of the mirror.
(C*) If O and I are on opposite side of the principal axis, then they have to be on opposite side of the mirror.
(D) If O is on principal axis then I has to lie on principal axis only.
