Q5. In an experiment, an object is kept at a distance of 60 cm in front of a convex mirror. A plane mirror is introduced covering the lower half of the convex mirror. When the plane mirror is kept at a distance of 40 cm from the object, there is no parallax between the images formed by the two mirrors. The focal length of the convex mirror then is

a. 40cm
b. 35cm.
c. 25 cm.
d. 45 cm

well you could wait for the solutions they give.

then you may ask the questions whose solution doesn't seem convincing to you.

needless to say there will be a lot of solution unconvincing.

Aside : i just hope someone from Brilliant tutorials reads this -they seem to have got a new bloke for physics ... and in a bid to raise the standard of the questions they are ending up with either incomplete questions, wrong questions and obviously wrong solutions !
for example in one question they asked the kinetic energy about a point... and for angular momentum he doesn't find it important enough to mention the point about which ang momentum is to be considered. ! ? !

4 d

Distance between the focus and directrix is 5=2a, using the formula for distance frm pt. to line

Length of LR=4a=10, a has its gen meaning
