Detailed Solution

1st image(A1B1)  is formed due to plane mirror to the left of it with magnification 1. It is virtual. ThisA1B1  acts as real object to the concave mirror of focal length

f=R2=1202=60cm

Question Image

A2B2 is the image of A1B1 formed by convex mirror

AB=A1B1=30cm

For A1:u=60cm,f=+60cm,V?

1V+1u=1f1V160

=160V=+30cm(PA2)

ForB1:1V+1u=1f1V190=160

V=+36cm(PB2)

Length of A2B2=3630=6cm

A2B2AB=630

A2B2=AB5

In the figure, it can be observed that both AB andA2B2  are left

to right i.e., A2B2  is erected w.r.t. AB. A2B2 is virtual

C) Velocity of image formed by a mirror is always opposite to the

object. AB moves left wardsA1B1  moves right wardsA2B2

moves left wards i.e., towards the mirror
