The distance of an object from the mirror's vertex if the image is real and has the same height as the object is 39 cm.
<h3>What is concave mirror?</h3>
A concave mirror has a reflective surface that is curved inward and away from the light source.
Concave mirrors reflect light inward to one focal point and it usually form real and virtual images.
<h3>
Object distance of the concave mirror</h3>
Apply mirrors formula as shown below;
1/f = 1/v + 1/u
where;
- f is the focal length of the mirror
- v is the object distance
- u is the image distance
when image height = object height, magnification = 1
u/v = 1
v = u
Substitute the given parameters and solve for the distance of the object from the mirror's vertex
1/f = 1/v + 1/v
1/f = 2/v
v = 2f
v = 2(19.5 cm)
v = 39 cm
Thus, the distance of an object from the mirror's vertex if the image is real and has the same height as the object is 39 cm.
