−### Statement
−
−$13.1.5.$ The object is located on the main optical axis of the concave mirror at a distance of 60 cm from the mirror pole. Determine the focal length of the mirror, if the image of the subject is valid and enlarged by one and a half times.
−
−### Solution
−
−If image is enlarged by one and a half times,\
−$k = \frac{s'}{s}$ (1)\
−where $k$ = 1.5 is the magnification of the image, $s$ is the object-mirror distance and $s'$ is the image-mirror distance.\
−It's known that,\
−$\frac{1}{s}+\frac{1}{s'}=\frac{1}{f}$ (2)\
−From (1),\
−$s' = ks$ (3)\
−Putting (3) into (2):\
−$f = \frac{ks}{k+1} = 36\;\rm{cm}$
−
−#### Answer
−
−$f = 36\;\rm{cm}$
