    A short linear object of length i lies along the axis of a concave mirror of focal length f at a distance u from the pole of the mirror. The size of the image is approximately equal to

    A) \[\ell {{\left( \frac{u-f}{f} \right)}^{1/2}}\]

    B) \[\ell {{\left( \frac{u-f}{f} \right)}^{2}}\]

    C) \[\ell {{\left( \frac{\,f}{u-f} \right)}^{1/2}}\]

    D) \[\ell {{\left( \frac{\,f}{u-f} \right)}^{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] The axial magnification \[\delta v=-\frac{{{v}^{2}}}{{{u}^{2}}}\frac{dt}{dt}\] \[={{\left( \frac{f}{u-f} \right)}^{2}}\,\ell .\]
