To find the focal length of a convex mirror, a student records the following data :
The focal length of the convex lens is $\displaystyle f_1$ and that of mirror is $\displaystyle f_2$. Then taking index correction to be negligibly small, $\displaystyle f_1$ and $\displaystyle f_2$ are close to :
| Object Pin | Convex Lens | Convex Mirror | Image Pin |
| $\displaystyle 22.2$ cm | $\displaystyle 32.2$ cm | $\displaystyle 45.8$ cm | $\displaystyle 71.2$ cm |
Official answer
(2)
$\displaystyle f_1=7.8 \mathrm{~cm} \quad f_2=12.7 \mathrm{~cm}$
