    A short linear object of length L lies on the axis of a spherical mirror of focal length \[f\] at a distance is from the mirror. Its image has an axial length \[L'\] equal to:

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

    B) \[L{{\left[ \frac{(u+f)}{f} \right]}^{1/2}}\]

    C)  \[L{{\left[ \frac{f}{(u-f)} \right]}^{2}}\]                 

    D) \[L{{\left[ \frac{f}{(u+f)} \right]}^{2}}\]  

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[\frac{1}{v}+\frac{1}{u}=\frac{1}{f}\]or \[-\frac{dv}{{{v}^{2}}}-\frac{du}{{{u}^{2}}}=0\]i.e., \[dv=-du{{(v/u)}^{2}}\] But \[v=\frac{uf}{u-f}\]or \[\frac{v}{\upsilon }=\frac{f}{u-f}\]so, \[dv=-du{{\left\{ \frac{f}{u-f} \right\}}^{2}}\] or         \[\left| dv \right|=L{{\left\{ \frac{f}{u-f} \right\}}^{2}}\] Hence, the correction option is [c].
